A caring mother's/foster mother's eyes 2015-03-01 - Green River Animal Shelter, 455 Appleby Drive, Columbia, KY - Photo by Kim Sallee, Director, Green River Animal Shelter. Kim Sallee, Director of the Green River Animal Shelter, says she'll try to keep Adair County aware of a basketful of fuzzball orphan puppies the shelter is taking care of until they are adoptable. For a time, Kim had primary puppy care alone, until the arrival of the wonderful little black dog mother above, who not only tends her natural born baby, but has accepted a foster pup, the little black and white one from the orphan family. Director Sallee has high hopes that by the orphan puppies are weaned and ready for adoption, there will be a waiting list of loving families to give them furever homes, and that the devoted mother and her puppy will have homes, too.
