In 1955 Ella Merle and her daughter Dede Kline rose to an auspicious challenge of helping animals who had fallen through the cracks of society in Columbia County. Through their dedication and exhaustive efforts, one small building with five dog kennels has today become a multi-faceted animal welfare organization holding up to sixty dogs and one hundred cats.
Over the last six decades CGHS/SPCA has expanded its services in the community to include low-cost veterinary services (serving more than two thousand animals each year); a food bank (providing 25,000 pounds of free food annually to families in need); stray dog housing, assisting law enforcement with cruelty cases; community outreach; and humane education.

Romeo & Sweetheart
Romeo and Sweetheart are 2 and a half year old Great Danes that came to us from a hoarding situation. They are the definition of gentle giants. Romeo is a gentleman and is very sweet with his affection. Sweetheart is a little more up front when she wants attention, but she’s very respectful. They are good with other dogs but cannot live with cats. They don’t need to be adopted together, but we’d love for them to go to the same home.
