Letter of thanks: Grand County Animal Shelter
To the Editor:
Kudos to the Grand County Animal Shelter. I’ve had the opportunity to observe how ell they treat their pets. I adopted a dog 12.5 years ago from them that we had to put down. I told the gals at the anmial shelter I’d like to adopt an older dog and give it a good home. After checking out several dogs, they came up with a wonderful shepherd mix 2.5 years-old. They do such a good job matching the dogs with the new owners. I now have a great new addition to my family thanks to them.
