Sumter County Animal Services rescued five puppies surrendered due to canine parvovirus, with two sadly succumbing to the illness. The remaining three, Trenton, Denver, and Frankie, were successfully treated and are now looking for homes. The shelter is urging people to consider fostering or adopting dogs and cats, as there are over 100 animals in need of loving homes.
The Animal Care Centers of New York City (ACC) has reached critical capacity and can no longer accept dogs, prompting a suspension of new dog intakes. The centers remain open for adoptions and are actively seeking solutions to resume dog intakes as soon as possible. ACC encourages those with the means to adopt or foster a dog in the meantime. Other resources like veterinary care and pet supplies are still available.
ACCT Philly urgently needs to find homes for at least 70 dogs by Monday to isolate sick dogs or those exposed to canine flu. The shelter will be closed for dog intake on April 24 and 25 to move the dogs and disinfect the building. The community can help by fostering, adopting, or donating to the shelter.
