Franklin County Humane Society seeking public help amid staffing shortage

The shelter’s vet left on Thursday

FRANKLIN COUNTY, Va. – The Franklin County Humane Society still needs your help as it continues to deal with a staffing shortage.

The animal shelter’s vet left on Thursday, and it can only treat animals at a limited volume.

Last month, it cost $115,000 to run the shelter, and without consistent appointments, making ends meet is hard.

The Humane Society has more than 260 pets to care for, and they need to find a vet by December.

The director said there are still many ways you can help.

“We need people to start spreading the word. There’s all kinds of need.”
