Animal Rescue In Mitchell Needs Volunteers To Remain Open

Associated Press0

MITCHELL, S.D. (AP) — An organization in Mitchell that finds homes for animals left at the city pound needs volunteers in order to continue to operate.

The Daily Republic ( ) reports that the future of Mitchell Animal Rescue is uncertain because of dwindling volunteer participation. The organization doesn’t have a facility to house the animals, so it uses a foster system to provide homes to the animals until they are adopted.

The group was founded in 2008. It charges a $25 fee to adopt a cat and between $75 and $175 for dogs.

The organization says the group is not ceasing operations, but its leaders will be meeting in the upcoming weeks to discuss the animal rescue’s future.
