The Newton County Animal Shelter has reopened to the public after being closed because of safety fears about COVID-19.
The shelter reopened Tuesday, Feb. 16, after being changed to an appointment-only status Jan. 21.
The public now can search for adoptable pets without the use of an appointment, the county government announced in a news release.
