The Walker County Animal Shelter had 124 people visit the shelter and adopt 12 dogs and 14 cats on their first day of the free adoption promotion "Priceless Pets."
"Among those adopted was the longest resident in the shelter, a dog that had been with us since December. We still have plenty of dogs for the second day of our event, but will only have a few kittens," officials said.
The promotion will continue for one more day. Saturday's hours are 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.
