By Becky Ginos

FRUIT HEIGHTS—There are more than 300 dogs and cats right now at Animal Care of Davis County (ACDC) who could use a good home. With the help of the foster program about half of those animals are with a family instead until they find a permanent home freeing up space in the overcrowded shelter.
