TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (WTWO/WAWV)-- Overcrowding and funding are constant issues for the Sullivan and Clay County Humane Societies.
Tina Baker, Sullivan County Humane Society manager, said due the pandemic pet owners are struggling now more than ever.
"It's been about 50/50. We've seen some surrenders due to people's financial situations. But in the beginning of the pandemic when a lot of people were home, they were able to come in and visit with our animals,” she said. “We did quite a few adoptions when it first started because people were able to get those animals to adjust to their living situations while they were home."
