Lincoln County is looking for a new provider to take care of pets that have nowhere else to go.
At the June 12 commissioners meeting, Health Department Director Kathi Hooper said the Tobacco Valley Animal Shelter was ending its $50,000 contract with the county to house and care for animals collected by animal control. The contract expires on July 4.
Hooper told The Western News she's optimistic that someone will step forward, but hadn't received any proposals as of Monday morning.
