A crisis in the Dallas Animal Shelter has led to an in unprecedented offer to encourage help from the public.
A flu strain that only infects canines has been detected in the adoption center where 150 dogs are housed. Flu season has been as hard on dogs this year as it has on humans.
Confident that an idea called 150 for 150 will encourage people to foster dogs for two weeks until the shelter can be decontaminated. "That's a great incentive for people to take them home and really give them the love that they need and deserve," said Dallas resident Kate Bould, who is considering taking home a Great Pyrenees.
"I do think if someone is on the fence and they know about it, it's a good way to kick them over," said Rockwall resident Minnie Froese.
