SIERRA VISTA, Ariz. — There are nearly 300 homeless people living in Cochise County , many of whom prefer to live in the fields and not a shelter because they don’t want to leave their pets behind.
Good Neighbor Alliance is completing a two-year plan that keeps people and their pets together, by building a space with kennels. Tammy Stone, an employee at Good Neighbor Alliance, was homeless and suggested the idea of kennels because she had firsthand experience of not wanting to leave her dog to get help.
“My dog kept me alive," Wetting said."There were times where I wanted to take my life, and I would look at him ."
