In this edition of Animal Tales, our focus is on the people who help us care for pets in Washington County. Read about how staff go the extra mile to provide comfort to shelter pets, the teamwork it takes to get justice for abused and neglected animals, and our participation in a successful weekend-long adoption event. You’ll also find articles highlighting our award-winning shelter supervisor, introducing our new volunteer coordinator, spotlighting a dedicated volunteer, and remembering the late Debbie Wood.

In this issue of Animal Tales, we invite you to take a deeper dive into animal safety, both at the shelter and in the community. You’ll find articles about preventing dog bites, helping your own pets stay safe this spring and summer, the benefits of keeping cats indoors, how Animal Services Officers keep the community safe, and more.
