A fundraising effort is going on to build a new multi-million dollar animal shelter in Brown County.
Volunteers say the current shelter is extremely overcrowded to the point it is hurting the animals.
The society’s 20 dog kennels are in one spot. There’s no place for shy dogs to be kept separated, or to separate sick dogs.
The staff break room has just a chair and a tiny corner of a table in a very small hallway stuffed with supplies.
More than $2.7 million of the $3.2 million needed has been raised already, thanks to donors.
But now the hardest work is likely ahead, with smaller donations needed to make up the rest.
