How YOU Can Help Prince George's Animals

How YOU Can Help Prince George's Animals

Big changes are happening at the Prince George's County shelter. The current contractor is not renewing their agreement, and as of July 1, the shelter will be run -- for the first time in over a decade -- without a contractor. And the shelter staff and animals will soon move into a new and three-times-larger animal shelter in Upper Marlboro. As one of the largest municipalities in the region, Prince George's County has an equally large animal population and all the challenges that go along with it. But you can help, and we urge you to get involved:

Volunteer, either at the county shelter or with a local group like ours that is trying to make a difference. If you can't volunteer, become a member and consider donating, so we can continue to work on these issues on your behalf. And be sure to let your elected officials know that you care about animal welfare issues and that your expectations for the county are high. And don't forget to join our e-mail list, so we can keep you informed.
