The good-sized yard sale was a fundraiser organized by Sec- ond Chance Pets of Huron County, a new independent pet rescue service. The main goal of the fundraiser was to earn money needed to spay, neuter and care for local ani- mals as well as to get them adopted. So far, the rescue service has rescued two cats and two dogs who are cur- rently being cared for in local homes. Founders of Second Chance Pets of Huron County, Julie Denomme, Kara Gosleigh and Laurie Hill, have a long history of caring for animals and do not want to see the yard sale fundraiser disappear as a result of changes at the SPCA. As Denomme said, "the SPCA has made changes and decided to forfeit the yard sale." Denomme, Gosleigh and Hill, however, are deter- mined to continue the fund- raiser well in the future. Sitting right on Hwy 8, Clin- ton Veterinary Services, which supports Second Chance Pets of Huron County and provides their veterinary services to their animals, is naturally an excellent location for the yard sale. By noon on Friday, around 50 people had already attended the event, a number which Gosleigh was thrilled with. For more information regarding Second Chance Pets of Huron County, the service can be reached through Facebook.
