Sacramento County went on strike today to demand better healthcare. Many services are being impacted in our area, including garbage pickup, childcare, and the county animal control facility. There will be fewer staff there to care for the animals, and I fear that will be disastrous for the dogs, cats, and other pets housed there. Fortunately, volunteers are stepping in to cover for the strikers. I was thinking about going out there to help out, but I have always understood that I couldn't work around a place that kills adoptable animals. I'd come home with a dozen dogs for sure. I hope the strike ends soon for all our sakes.
