“We are going to showcase a lot of dogs that can’t go to adoption events,” Willen said. “I think it is really going to be cool.”

Willen HALO, a nonprofit located at 3346 Jasper Road in Xenia, typically teams up with Petsmart for adoption events, but fears of spread of the coronavirus makes that impossible right now due to fears of the virus.

“People are interested in adoption right now and we have a lot of people who are interested in fostering because they are home,” she said.
