Heard County Animal Control Requests Supplies
Heard county animal control in Franklin, Georgia is in need of a few items to assist with the care of the animals impounded. Some folks don’t like to help a county pound because when the shelter is full and the pet has been there for some time, they might be euthanized. However, if the condition of the animals are good, a rescue group is more likely to return to spring another dog or cat from there. Also, if someone adopts a dog and they are covered with fleas, their neighbor may remember that versus the actual personality of the dog, and will refrain from adopting there themselves.
Items that are needed:
Flea shampoos and flea repellants
Regular dog shampoo
Dog food (Petsmart used to donate food, but have discontinued the practice)
Chew treats such as pig ears
Towels and blankets
Sometimes, there are Grocery Coupons for dog food in the paper, or when you go to manufacturer websites. It may bring down he price of food you may buy for a donation. Do not send them a check, as it will go into the general fund and will not be earmarked for food and supplies. The small staff of two is not able to hold it aside.
Also, if you are not near enough to the shelter to take it there and you find it too prohibitive to mail items, please spread the word. Also, help is needed to spread the word about this handsome Labrador Retriever that is there. He is very sweet and friendly, and his id number is 87309. He is slated for euthanization and could really use an angel. Please contact the shelter right away:
