Issues Facing Pets in Our Community
What you can do to help pets overcome the many problems they face

A growing number of animals in the city receive little to no veterinary care and/or are victims of neglect, abuse, poor living conditions, socialization, dog-fighting or other forms of animal cruelty. The poor economic climate in the city has significantly affected the ability of many pet owners to care for animals.  Here are the five main issues pets in our community face and what you can do to help.
