Maybe the staff shouldn’t tell people visiting the animals to leave and not come back.

Why not bring in students to help the animals? Would be a good education on what animals need and may bring the animals some new homes.

I had read that sherrif Joe in Az took over the county animal shelter and uses prisoners to op. & run the shelter. They want to do the job as it is a break from the cells and tents. They also cherish
the attention the animals give back to them.
With proper screening and oversite of certain prisoners, why does not the county at least have a
look at this possibilty ?

Waterman: Great Idea. Everyone needs love…the animals and the inmates…save $$$ to.

These “money saving ideas” sound good until you consider that some local people will no longer have a job as a result. These hidden outcomes need to be considered. The foreclosures
and unemployment payments that come about are very expensive to you and I who actually
pay for these things.

You need to read my comment on people NOT paying attention in High School….guess what it happens alll the time, and then they blame everyone but themselves…go figure!

Support this extremely important shelter with donations and volunteering your time. As for the bitter Nag(s) who use this important story as a political forum, be good and there might be a extra Milk Bone
in it’s bowl tomorrow!

Glad to see you showing some human compassion for less fortunate creatures…there’s hope for you yet…now extend that to those with just two legs….

This shelter is a lifeline for some of the most loving cats and dogs you’ll ever meet. Thank you to the hard working staff who help the animals there. It’s no place for a cat or dog to spend a
life though - they need caring homes. People are STILL paying money for purebreds when
these amazing cats and dogs are languishing in the harsh environment of a shelter waiting for
a loving home. Tell your friends, Think Shelter First.
