The Animal Shelter on McCourtney Road is open 12-4p.m. Monday through Saturday but if that’s not convenient people can call the shelter at 471-5041 to make an appointment to view the animals ready for adoption. Wicks says there is also a dog behaviorist that is at the shelter every morning and working with the dogs and if anyone adopts a Pitt Bull she will offer them dog training for free.
