The Wetzel County Animal Shelter desperately needs a new vehicle to transport animals. The vehicle they have is old, unreliable, and increasingly expensive to maintain. The shelter staff uses this vehicle to take animals to the vet and to other areas of the state when necessary to increase adoption opportunities. The dedicated staff members at the shelter are doing wonderful things for animals and they need our help to raise money for a newer vehicle.

I encourage all readers to help to whatever extent they can-every donation will help them improve the lives of animals. Donations may be sent to Wetzel County Animal Shelter Supporters Inc., RR 2 Box 57, New Martinsville, WV 26155. If you would like additional information, you may call the Wetzel County Animal Shelter, 304-455-5348. All donations are tax deductible and will be sincerely appreciated by all the furry people at the shelter. Please designate your contribution as being for a replacement vehicle.
