Byram Animal Rescue Kindness Squad
Helping Stray and Abandoned Animals since 1973
BARKS has had their stay at the Byram Shelter extended until 12/30/2021 and is working on preparing for The Big Move to Hampton, NJ. We have secured a lease and variance and now must work on building a safe and enriching environment for our animals. We will be looking for volunteers to help us with the move.
We are saddened by the position taken by the Township and wish only the best for the residents and animals of Byram Township
BARKS has been open and honest in our effort to offer significant additional financial support of the shelter in the midst of a pandemic and decreased donations. Unfortunately, we are forced to continue the BARKS mission which began in 1973 in a new location. We pray that the Township will continue to provide no kill sheltering to the animals of Byram Township.
We would appreciate the support of Byram residents in advising their Township Council of their support for BARKS. Please know that the decision to leave Byram is not ours, but is the result of a cost prohibitive ultimatum from the Township.
