The city of Dothan has agreed to enter into a contract with Wiregrass Pet Rescue and Adoption Center for an animal shelter in town. The yes vote by city commissioners will commit $6 million for the construction of a new animal shelter. The vote was 3 – 1. Officials with the pet rescue say the new shelter will be a fun place to come and pick a pet. This is a no kill shelter and a non-profit. No word on when the shelter will break ground.
