Improved Dog Play Yards at the HSVC!

By Franki Williams

The HSVC is happy to report that thanks to the overwhelming support of our community and volunteers we were able to provide our dogs with an improved play yard over the weekend. You may recall about a month ago we sent out a call to our supporters to help with funds to repair a few of our yards. We ended up raising more than we expected and were able to purchase the materials necessary to put up new siding on all of our big dog yards!
