Looking For A Dog? Waived Fees and a Call for Action: Lake County Shelter's Bid to Ease Capacity Strain

Brandy - Lake County Animal Shelter

The Lake County Animal Shelter, renowned for treating its canine residents to Milk-Bone biscuits with peanut butter, is urgently seeking community support to address its capacity crisis, currently 70% over its limit with nearly 170 dogs. The shelter's director emphasizes the need for adopters, foster homes, and pet reclaimers, highlighting the nationwide trend of extended stays for shelter dogs. To combat this, the shelter encourages public involvement in various forms and has waived adoption and reclaim fees temporarily. Additionally, the shelter stresses the importance of ensuring pets' microchips are registered to aid in quick reunifications. So, if you’re looking for a dog or cat check out their website at:
