FAYETTE COUNTY ADOPTABLE

Meet Leon and Carl! They are only two of the 451 Fay ette County dogs brought to the shelter this year, so far. We would like to spotlight these boys because we feel they would make great family dogs. Both boys love people and are friendly with other animals. Stop by and take them for a walk or give them a treat, you may fall in love! You can help the animals in the shelter by adopting, fostering, donating, vol unteering, and educating the community about spay/neuter.
