The Humane Society of Northeast Georgia is closing in on its fundraising goal for the Howard-Oliver Bark Park, which will expand and improve the play areas for the group’s dogs who are up for adoption. The shelter’s fundraising page had raised $23,525 out of its $30,000 goal as of Sunday afternoon. “It's been a dream for long time and we could not be more grateful that it's finally on it way to coming true thanks to the community,” said Humane Society spokeswoman Sam Threadgill.
