Forsyth County Animal Shelter is putting out a call for fosters and volunteers. With limited contact due to COVID-19, Kathryn Gaglio, program coordinator for the animal shelter, said recruitment for fosters and volunteers is difficult.
Gaglio and the rest of her team are beginning a Volunteer Foster Care Program featuring Doggy Days Out and fostering for dogs, cats and kittens.
“The program that we’ve got set up right now, it’s set up so that no matter what your time commitment is, there is an animal that we can fit to your time commitment,” Gaglio said. “Whether you have a couple months, a day, a couple of hours, there’s an animal that needs your time.”
