Case Dogs Need Fosters

We currently have 2 case dogs waiting for foster placement. They are here because HSHV is the holding facility for animals going through court trials. They cannot be adopted.

After I visited with Gracie and Giselle (as they were named then), they were placed back in their enclosure as I called my husband to discuss
