TODAY | The Hamilton County Humane Society (HSHC) is opening their doors this Wednesday for the first time, in an effort to get more dogs adopted. They will be open for adoption and foster placements from 12 p.m. to 7 p.m.
The shelter is normally closed on Wednesday's to allow the staff to focus on training and deep cleaning the facility, they said.
"Dog adoptions have slowed tremendously pushing several of our deserving dogs to their emotional breaking points," Rebecca Stevens, President and CEO said"Our team and volunteers do everything possible to keep them engaged through exercise and enrichment. But, just because we never give up on the animals in our care doesn't mean they don't give up. And there are dozens teetering on the edge right now.
For those interested in fostering a dog, the shelter is requesting a commitment of at least one week to provide dogs"a much needed stress break," as well as open up space in the kennels. T
