"I found a stray animal, can I take it to Watermelon?"

Unfortunately, no.

Due to municipal ordinances, we are not able to take in public found strays. Please do not bring them to the Ranch. 

Take the found animal to a local municipal shelter. This is the best chance for the pet to find their owners.

4 Paws Chapel &

Angels' Rest Memorial Garden

One of the hardest things to endure is when your loyal companion goes over the rainbow bridge. It is a heartbreaking time. 

The 4 Paws Chapel and Angels Rest Memorial Garden will be a place you can bring the ashes of your loved ones and put in the chapel or spread in the memorial gardens. It is our goal to have a place that will bring comfort to you when grieving. We invite you to be a part of this exciting project.
