Williamson County Office Closed Veterans Day Nov. 12, 2018

WILLIAMSON COUNTY, TEXAS — Williamson County offices will be closed for Veterans Day on Monday, Nov. 12, officials said in a press advisory.

However, officials added, the Williamson County Regional Animal Shelter will be open regular hours on Monday from noon to 6 p.m., 1855 S.E. Inner Loop, Georgetown.

"For Veterans Day weekend, adopt an adult dog or cat for only $4," officials urged. "The dogs and cats of Williamson County Regional Animal Shelter are ready to deploy to their newest mission: " 'Paw-triots 4 Patriots.' "

The animals' Veterans Day charge, as described by county officials: "Their mission includes belly rub preparedness, bird watching expertise, mailman surveillance, hidden dog bone extraction, and more. These dogs and cats may not be as brave and bold as our military veterans, but they do vow to be as loyal."

Kittens and puppies are $75 to adopt. Adoption special runs through Nov. 12.
