The Fourth of July fireworks can frighten cats and dogs. Please make sure your animals are secure in your home and can’t get out. In the past, local animal shelters have been overrun with dogs that have run from their homes during the fireworks on July Fourth. For this reason, the Elizabethton/Carter County Animal Shelter will be holding an adoption event the Tuesday before to help clear out the shelter. We would like to see as many animals as possible find loving homes during this event.
