This episode is sponsored by Greenwood Aerospace a proud support of Northern Oklahoma Humane Society.

This week on the podcast, Andy sits down with Dallas, the operations manager at the Northern Oklahoma Humane Society, for a candid, funny, and sometimes emotional peek behind the shelter doors. Dallas discusses the daily challenges of animal rescue, everything from taking in abandoned pets to managing limited kennel space, all while keeping tails wagging and whiskers twitching.

You’ll learn about their Pet Pantry program, which ensures local pets don’t go hungry, and the creative ways they stretch donations from generous community partners, including Tractor Supply, PetSense, and Walmart. Dallas also dishes on their big-ticket fundraiser, a raffle for a brand-new Arctic Cat Wildcat ATV, donated by the ever-supportive Greenwood Aerospace.

And of course, there are the animals themselves. In this episode, we discuss Dune, the energetic husky mix with a love for zoomies; Beefcake, the one-eyed gentle giant pit bull; and Meatloaf, the 18-pound cat whose weight loss you can follow on NOKHS’s Facebook page.
