Our animal shelter began as a small shed under the bridge over Gastineau Channel. While we will always be proud of those humble beginnings, our new name and logo more accurately convey the community spirit of the organization that has served Juneau’s animal population since 1963. In January 2019 we changed our name to Juneau Animal Rescue, hoping to strengthen awareness of our organization and exp

Happy Mother’s Day to all, including our beloved Gracie ☀️💖

You may have seen a couple puppy photos floating around, but did you ever wonder where they came from? 🤔

Gracie is a Husky from Angoon that’s just about a year old. Because of some wandering dogs, she wound up with an accidental litter and a one way ticket to Juneau Alaska. Gracie was doing great with her puppies until she was stuck with them 24/7! The puppies were lucky to have stuck with their mother for as long as they did, but eventually, they were weaned and momma was free! 💕

Since Gracie had been without her pups, her mental health has improved and she’s grateful to start receiving some one-on-one attention with our staff! She’s full of energy, loves to play, and gives the best hugs and kisses! Gracie loves treats and takes them as easy as she can holster that self control, but she may need a little help learning some personal space. 🥰

Gracie is a big sweetheart with people, but we’re unsure how she’d do with other dogs. Kenneling next to so many canines has been troublesome to say the least, so with all that added stress, it’s hard to say if she’d do well in a multi-dog household. When it comes to cats, we think maybe she’d stay a little far from them, as she had a small tendency to chase her puppies when they would play and run from her! 😅

Gracie is most definitely in need of a nice, relaxing spa day where she can rid all of those loose tufts of fur and show off that lovely coat of hers! Momma needs some time to herself, but also she longs to be apart of a family. Gracie has recently had her spay surgery and is almost ready to find her forever home! Stop by Juneau Animal Rescue or visit our website and look out for Gracie! 🙌💕

They’ve come from a world of their own.. 🌙🪐✨

Our yellow room cats all come from the same household and are all ready to find a place to call home. 🐱❤️‍🩹

Upon walking in, you can expect to meet cats like Pluto and Neptune, who love to make new friends and eat all of the treats you’re hiding! On top of our counters, you’ll most likely find Venus or Jupiter, cats that can be a little more antisocial, but aren’t opposed to affection. Mercury and Saturn are typically found in the tall cat tree, huddling together with another cat or perching to view the room from above. 💕

Then there’s Comet, a round orange tabby who’s still coming around. Comet was the outdoor cat, and so he never officially became apart of the group once they arrived at JAR. Comet can usually be found sleeping in round, comfy beds low to the ground. He’s a sweet boy who will flourish in a calm home with lots of window-light for bird watching. ☀️🐦‍⬛

Juneau Animal Rescue is filling up with cats! We’re starting to overcrowd rooms and kennels, and so we’re hoping we get some of these cuties into new homes soon! If you’re interested in opening up your home to a furry friend in need, then adopt with Juneau Animal Rescue! All of our animals come spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped! ✅

Visitation starts tomorrow from 1 PM to 5 PM! 🐾
