Coffeyville Friends of Animals pass their final round of inspections from the Kansas Department of Agriculture after allegations made this summer. Head of the Board Becky Barnhart says they had three inspections from the KDA due to those allegations and a complaint that was filed.

Improvements made after the first inspection included removing rust from pens, replacing rubber mats in kennels and ensuring all medical records were located at the shelter. One of the biggest allegations made involved a deep freeze with dead animals inside. Shelter Director Danny Thompson says there were never any animals from the shelter in that freezer.

Thompson says only veterinarians perform euthanasia for or at the shelter. Barnhart says they appreciated the support they continued to receive from the community during this time. She says donations are what keep the shelter running.
