“All the power to the building was cut, windows smashed, supplies thrown around, crowbars left behind, our fencing and roll down doors torn apart, and it’s just a mess,” Executive Director Kristina Rinaldi said in a Facebook post.
All of the dogs are safe.
Workers are counting supplies and medications to see what was stolen.
“This is a hard blow and a big clean-up,” Rinaldi said. “We are working with police and our security company. If you can help, please, please donate. As we build a new shelter, now we have to take care of our current one. I’m so sad, but thankful that my team and dogs are safe.”
