The Regional Animal Shelter in Fulton County!

Last night I was given the opportunity to join an amazing group of people who have not only made large strides for positive changes for animals, but for the people of our community as well. The regional shelter will be open within a month and there are so many great ideas concerning fundraising! There will be a pet CPR class that will be open to the public and especially veteranarians. I will definitely be taking the class! :) It will be $85.00 a person and one hundred percent of the proceeds will go to the shelter. We discussed microchips which is fairly new to our community. A dog or a cat can be injected with the microchip which has its own number or code. If a pet gets lost, the vet will be able to scan the number on the computer and find out the location of the pet. I think it will prevent a lot of animals from going to the shelter after being seperated from their family. Overall, this organization along with their efforts will be making a huge difference for our community in that they stress spaying and neutering and the shelter will be able to take in and offer services to a lot of animals that would not receive help otherwise. Meetings are every third tuesday of the month at the town hall in Johnstown. We can always use more volunteers!
