Coronavirus and pets: Fredericksburg fire chief addresses concerns as clear-the-shelter event underway

With fewer volunteers on hand to take care of animals during the spread of the coronavirus, an effort is underway to clear the shelters. 

Between Thursday, March 26 and Wednesday, April 1, the BISSELL Pet Foundation will help foot the bill to lower adoption fees for their shelter animals at the Fredericksburg SPCA, located at 10819 Courthouse Road.

With this reduced adoption fee, people can now adopt a pet for $25 by first, viewing adoptable animals on the shelter’s website, and then fill out an online application.
