Elsewhere in Northeast Florida, Clay County says its Animal Service kennels are full, and to help open up space for new stray dogs, it’s waiving adoption fees for all dogs over the age of six months until September 19th. We’re told each dog will be spayed or neutered, microchipped, and up to date on all vaccines.
