Dog shelter closed through weekend due to animal illness
DAYTON, Ohio (WDTN) — A dog shelter in the Miami Valley is closed due to reported illness amongst its population. The Clark County Dog Shelter announced on their social media that their office would be closed through the end of the week due to a 'serious illness in a few of our dogs…' With bird flu hitting 1st Ohioan, what are the symptoms and how is it treated? The shelter has been advised to observe and isolate the population reporting illness. This also means decreasing the number of strays brought in, at least for a few days. 'This does not mean mass euthanasia, as some assume,' the shelter said in the post. The dog shelter hopes to reopen on Tuesday, Feb. 18, if all goes according to plan. If residents spot a stray, the shelter says that posting a picture and location can help.
