The number of animals that need homes that are at the Washington County Animal Shelter went down again slightly in the past week, as 1 dog found a home and 2 were brought in to the shelter, including a German Shepherd and a Terrier mix. There are no cats at the shelter this week, so there are 9 animals at the shelter that need homes. Dog adoption fee is $30, which includes an A.V.I.D. Identification Chip. In addition, new owners will receive a certificate for $50 off spaying or neutering. Pictures are available online at www.petfinder.com and type in 62263 at the first space in the upper left. The shelter also is a place to drop off aluminum cans for recycling. They then use the money from this to help pay for expenses of housing the cats and dogs. It is located at 17,990 Richview Road in Nashville. For more information, call 327-4800, extension 355.
