SALT LAKE CITY — The Humane Society of Utah is calling on local residents to adopt dogs, saying that their shelters are full.

They are asking Utahns to spread the word in their communities. 

“Heck, even tell the person standing next to you in line at the store,” the Human Society of Utah said on Instagram. 

More specifically, the shelter needs adopters to take home puppies and large dog breeds.

Located at 4242 South 300 West in Murray, the Human Society of Utah is open seven days a week from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Your first step could be the website of the Humane Society of Utah, where you can view all of the potential new companions they have available for adoption.
