ELYRIA, Ohio (WOIO) - A Lorain County animal shelter is struggling to nurse dozens of very sick puppies back to health after rescuing them from a home in Columbia Station.
In his decade as the executive director for the Friendship Animal Protective League in Elyria, Gregory Willey says this is one of the most heartbreaking operations he has been a part of. “They didn’t have the strength to lift their heads up,” explained Willey. “They didn’t have the strength to carry on, so it was really really a difficult time.”
