JCARL reaching capacity with dogs

Many dogs in Jasper County have homes, but for some, the Jasper County Animal Rescue League has become their home, but it is running out of room to accommodate them.

“Last month was really, really slow for us,” JCARL Facilities Director Kusteena Wolodkewitsch said. “Since the first of the year, we have taken in 110 dogs from our county, (and) 48 of the 110 were reclaimed. What that means is the rest of the dogs went into adoption, and they either been adopted out or they are still here.”

Wolodkewitsch said the hardest dogs to facilitate are large dogs.
