Animal Shelter Owners Face Foreclosure - Project Economy News Story - KCRA Sacramento
A shelter that focuses on senior and special-needs animals could close if it doesn't raise thousands of dollars by the end of the month.
David and Deanna Bartley fit 20 dogs in their home, which also serves as the A Chance For Bliss animal shelter in Penryn.
Among the dogs are Bernie, who's 19 and almost blind, and Joy, the resident watchdog who's also partially deaf.
Many of the dogs are in diapers, and some are on the verge of death.
The couple takes care of 23 horses, 15 farm animals, nine fowl, three cats and two rabbits.
Right now, all 73 animals on the verge of being homeless, along with the Bartleys, who are facing foreclosure.
The Bartleys said they need $65,000 to pay their mortgage and to save their animals before the end of the month.
