Once again, as Arizona transitions from a spring bloom into the height of summer, animal shelters across the state face a dilemma: dog turn-ins and puppies are at an all-time high.

The Nancy J. Brua Animal Care Center in Sierra Vista is a no-kill shelter, and with the public's help, they strive to keep it that way.

The Nancy J. Brua Animal Care Center is experiencing yet another high volume of dog intakes, which means owner turn-ins and stray dogs rounded up in Sierra Vista are outpacing adoptions. The animal shelter is bursting at the seams.

Many of the shelter's puppies and small dogs are ready to find forever homes with loving families in Cochise County.
