The ACC is updating our volunteer walk times for shelter dogs.
Morning walks will move to 9 AM for the foreseeable future. Starting 30 minutes later will give our kennel staff enough time to feed, medicate, and harness all the dogs before walks begin.
Afternoon walks will remain at 4 PM through the rest of the summer. Once temperatures cool down, they will return to 3 PM.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support of the ACC!

Help Spree Get the Care She Needs
Our sweet Spree just can’t seem to catch a break.
After noticing a lump developing on her back leg, we brought her to the vet yesterday. Unfortunately, we received some difficult news—the lump appears to be a mast cell tumor. We are currently awaiting the results of a full biopsy to determine the severity of the tumor.
In the meantime, Spree needs surgery to have the mass removed, and we are hoping to raise $1,500 to help cover the cost of her surgery. Our biggest hope is that we can remove the tumor before it has had a chance to spread.
Spree has already been through so much. She previously required stomach surgery, and she will also need heartworm treatment, which is expected to cost more than $1,000. At just 4 years old, Spree still has so much life ahead of her, and we want to give her every opportunity to live the happy, healthy life she deserves.
As we move into the later part of summer, donations typically slow down, making your support more important than ever. Any donation, no matter the amount, can make a difference for Spree.
Donations can be made:
- By phone via credit card
- In person at the Animal Care Center, Monday–Friday, 8:30 AM–4:00 PM
- By check mailed to:
Animal Care Center of St. John
PO Box 429
St. John, VI 00831
Donate online: www.stjohnanimalcarecenter.com/donate/
Please consider helping Spree get the surgery and care she needs. Every donation, share, and kind thought for this sweet girl means so much.
Let’s help Spree get through this and give her the future she deserves.
