Bud Norman, shelter manager, pets a pit bull on Thursday handled by Evelyn Collins, a volunteer. About 30 people volunteer at the shelter, Norman said.
Adoptions at the Rogers Animal Shelter are traditionally slow as winter approaches. “People are busy with the holidays and don’t adopt as many animals,” said Bud Norman, shelter manager.
