Hardin County animal shelter and library partner for read to dogs event

The Hardin County Animal Shelter and the Hardin County Public Library are partnering on an event that benefits animals and kids alike.

Registration is available for Waggin’ Tales, a chance for kids to practice their reading with dogs at the animal shelter. Slots are available on July 11 and July 18.

The shelter says many of the dogs housed there are nervous and worried, and reading to them helps calm them down and show them that people can be trusted. The dogs then offer great moral support for the readers.

Find the Waggin’ Tales flier on facebook to access the registration link.

Hardin County Animal Care and Control Director Mike McNutt previously told Quicksie and The Wolf that the animal shelter is in dire need of adopters.

“If you’re ready to make a commitment to an animal, please come see us,” McNutt said. “We have zero space on the adoption floor. Animals are coming in at an alarming rate, and it’s this way across the nation.”

The Hardin County Animal Shelter is open Mondays through Saturdays from noon to 4 p.m. at 220 Peterson Drive in Elizabethtown. Contact the shelter or visit their Facebook page for more information.
