Recently, a group of concerned citizens formed a committee with a common goal of building a new animal shelter for Carter County. The Shelter is in horrible condition. Many people have offered their time, services, and money to help reach our goal but we still have a ways to go. This website is dedicated to achieving that goal with the help and support of our surrounding communities.
