The Animal Refuge Center joined the PAWS United Network yesterday at the Pritchard Community Center in Elizabethtown, KY for the network’s first-ever event, Bail Me Out of the Shelter Pet Expo!

A great time was had by all! There were two dog adoptions, and local Hardin County organizations got the chance to meet and network with one another.

Plans and reservations for next year’s event are already underway, and promises to be bigger and better than this debut event.
