Calling All Vets, Vet Techs & Medical Professionals!

The ACC is in great need of 20 mg Prednisone and is hoping for donations from our amazing veterinary and medical community.

Prednisone is one of the medications we use most often in-house, especially for the many heartworm-positive dogs we care for and treat.

If you’re able to donate or know someone who may be able to help, please reach out to us at info@stjacc.org for more information.

Every donation makes a difference in helping us provide the care these animals need. Thank you for supporting the ACC! ... See MoreSee Less

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! ... See MoreSee Less

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

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. ... See MoreSee Less
