The Salt Lake County Animal Services shelter only has a few empty kennels. And with Christmas right around the corner, they feel it will get worse before it gets better.
“Normally we run about 30 to 40 total dogs at any given time," said DeGrey, a volunteer coordinator."So now that we're running 90 to 100, we're way above what the normal is.”
“Sometimes that's due to people getting puppies as gifts during the holidays, which we would ask folks to avoid," he said. “It's expensive," she said."Veterinary care is harder to find. The vets are full and aren't taking new clients.”“The animal's not, 'Until I have a baby,' or, 'Until next year,' or, with COVID, 'Until I have to go back to work,'" she said."They're not temporary. When you commit to these kids, it's for a lifetime.”
