With help from concerned citizens and some government loans, the shelter was completed.
A retired gentleman by the name of Perry Dehart, donated the land and his time to build the shelter. In 1960, this dedicated group decided it was impractical and impossible to keep all the animals in their homes, and Strayhaven Animal Shelter was built and Incorporated. There was only a group of caring people, who rescued strays, keeping them in their homes until these pitiful dogs and cats were found loving homes. But for Alison, it was her chance to talk about the shelter she loves so much.Īccording to their website, “In the early fifties, there was no Strayhaven Animal Shelter. It was a very hot and humid day in Pennsylvania to say the least. It was no different when we met Alison Kuder from Strayhaven Animal Shelter who is proud to serve on their board. Every shelter and community has different struggles, yet the volunteers, workers and board members we have met on our Adventure Of A Lifetime are more than happy and excited to do what they do. Late nights, hard work and countless tears are part of the territory. If you are an animal rescuer, you likely have a thankless job.
