FRANKLIN CO., Va. – The Franklin County Animal Shelter is hosting a pet adoption event in hopes of finding new homes for some of the animals.
“We are trying to give some of the scared, the older, the underdogs a chance at a life and it’s getting very hard to keep hope,” the shelter wrote in a social post. “When we say we’re full, it’s not that we have 10 open kennels, etc… it’s we have <2 half kennels or cat condos!”
