In order to help alleviate some of the capacity problem, Dr. Amanda Greathouse with the Troup County Animal Hospital is sponsoring adoption fees for all cats and dogs at the shelter through the end of November.

“This is a great opportunity for individuals and families looking to add a furry friend to their home while helping the shelter make room for animals in need,” LaGrange officials said in a statement. “All adopted animals will be spayed or neutered, current on vaccinations, and microchipped.”

More information about the shelter and its current animals can be found online or by calling LaGrange Animal Services at 706-298-3606.
