At The Shire, we love when you shop with your furbabies!!

Countless of stories have been written starring our 4-legged friends. Old Yeller, Black Beauty, Charlotte's Web, Dungeon Crawler Carl, Life of Pi, All Creatures Great and Small, Where the Red Fern Grows and so many others!

Come in, get a book and drop off some money into Lyon County Animal Care and Control box!

You'll feel so good helping out and maybe find your next best read!!

🐾❤️ Another Wonderful Local Business Stepping Up! ❤️🐾

We are excited to announce that The Shire Bookstore now has a donation box for The Friends of Crittenden County Animal Shelter!

A huge THANK YOU to The Shire Bookstore for supporting our shelter dogs and helping us make a difference! 📚🐶

You may wonder, where do these donations go?

Before our dogs can leave for rescue, they need veterinary care. This includes health certificates, heartworm testing, rabies vaccinations, and other medical requirements that only a veterinarian can provide.

❤️ That’s exactly what these donations help pay for!

Last month alone, 18 dogs left our shelter for rescues with room to take them! 🎉

That’s 18 dogs getting another opportunity to find their forever families AND 18 spaces opening up so we can help more dogs in need.

Rescue is such an important part of what we do. We simply couldn’t help as many dogs without the wonderful rescues, volunteers, and community members who make it possible.

Every dollar donated helps us keep these dogs moving toward brighter futures! 🐾

Thank you, The Shire Bookstore, for being part of that mission! ❤️

And thank you to everyone who drops a little something into one of our donation boxes. No amount is too small to make a difference!
