FARMINGTON – Apu is another sidekick at the Franklin County Animal Shelter.

Like all sidekicks, he’s good company, said staff. He likes attention, and he also likes his solitude.

New dogs at the shelter include a yellow lab male and mini-pincher male.

A rabies and vaccine clinic will be held from noon to 2 p.m. Sunday, April 20, at the shelter. For more information, call 778-2638. Cat neutering clinics will also be held soon; call 778-2638 for details.
