I'll probably be pounced upon here....but here goes. We were watching the news last night and they showed a "pet friendly" shelter. The room had ALL the animals separated from their humans, in crates but the noise was horrible. The dogs were mostly barking or whining and shivering! I KNOW folks in manufactured homes need to go somewhere as do their animals BUT it didn't seem like a pleasant experience for these pets. I don't know of another viable solution to this (other than fore-going having a pet). It's a delimma for sure!
I think our community, county and state is doing the best they know how in this dire situation and I for one, appreciate it. The news coverage has been great (if not a bit over-saturated...but they have to do it). LOTS of information on t.v., the radio, the press and social media. IF anyone says "I didn't know!"---then they've been living under a rock!!
