13 Dogs Face Euthanasia Due to Lack of Government Funding

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- Over a dozen dogs may be euthanized if they're not adopted by June 30.

Earlier this month, Cecil County notified A Buddy For Life animal shelter in Elkton that because they're pulling county funding, the shelter would have until June 30 to clear all of the animals out of their current space before the county converts the building into the new Animal Control Division.

The shelter has been working endlessly to help all of their dogs find happy homes before the end of the month.

"We'd love the option of taking every one of them home" says a representative from the shelter, "but we're doing what we can."

A Buddy For Life urges anyone who considers themselves to be experienced pet owners to consider taking in one of their remaining "project dogs" before it's too late.

"They need some work," the representative says, "but they can be your best friend, you just have to come meet them."
