(CENTREVILLE) – St. Joseph County Animal Control now has extra space to store items they need.

St. Joseph County Sheriff Mark Lillywhite says through their fund raising efforts, the St. Joseph County Animal Control Advisory Board purchased a 10 by 20 foot shed. This will be used to store food and supplies that are not necessary for daily operations. It will also store the overflow of additional transport kennels for neglect and hoarding cases.

Lillywhite says they are excited to have this extra space, which is desperately needed. He thanks the Animal Control Advisory Board and all of the donors who made this possible.
