ALL Dogs at Tuscaloosa Shelter Must Have 3-Day Foster During Upcoming Kennel Maintenance
Tuscaloosa Metro Animal Shelter needs temporary dog fosters for a few days later this month while maintenance crews replace and install new drain covers in the kennels.
Every dog in the shelter must be out of the kennels during the work, which runs from the morning of Monday, July 27 through Thursday afternoon, July 30.
Shelter officials say earlier pickups on Monday are especially helpful.
