Peru dog shelter, post-budget climate bill, Maxwell Eaton III

(Apr 25, 2024) For the last two months, a nonprofit SPCA in Clinton County has cared for almost 50 dogs seized in an alleged animal cruelty case.

He's joining NCPR for a celebration of children's literature Saturday morning at the Massena Public Library.
