JACKSON, Tenn. – The Jackson Animal Care Center, the city’s Certified Animal Control Center, received a $10,000 donation from local business owner Dustin Ring.

The $10,000 donation will be used specifically for medical services for the animals at the center.

“We will be able to provide animal care for over 200 animals with the amount that Mr. Ring is donating,” said Jackson Animal Care Center Director Whitney Owen. “It is more help that people can imagine. We very much appreciate it.”

Ring, owner of Dustin Buys Houses, is a pet owner and felt like giving back locally would make a better impact.

“I want to be able to make a difference locally in Jackson and I love animals,” said Ring. “I feel like, Jackson being the tightknit community that it is, donating to places that really need our help, it makes a difference and you can actually see that difference.”

Ring says he hopes to make this a yearly-donation to the Jackson Animal Care Center.
