The Life Saving grant is given to organizations across the country as part of Petco Love’s mission to make pet families closer, stronger, and healthier.
What is the short and long term plan for the present and deplorable condition of the animal shelter??
Has council even addressed the issue? Bob Innes, staff and volunteers have been crying for help for months!
