Urgent Need to Rehome Dogs Due to Canine Flu Outbreak in Philadelphia and Oklahoma
The Animal Care and Control Team in Philadelphia is urgently seeking homes for at least 70 dogs after a canine flu outbreak at its Hunting Park location. The shelter needs to create a second temporary shelter to house dogs exposed to the flu for up to a month. The facility will be closed for dog intake on 24 and 25 April to allow for the dogs to be moved and the building to be cleaned. The shelter is seeking foster homes for large dogs for a month, and all adoption fees have been waived for dogs over 40 pounds until 23 April. Donations can be made online or mailed to ACCT Philly.
