A chick chick here, a pig there, here a pup, there a horse... Sound familiar? It's not Old McDonald's Farm, but there are dogs, ducks, horses, pigs, and chickens in Maryville at the Brighter Futures Farm run by the S.P.C.A. of Blount County. Gino Bauchman, the President chats with Michele Silva about the farm. Some of the dogs there have been rescued by RAM from Florida's Hurricane Irma and are up for adoption.. Gino also tells us about the two dogs, Rosco and Bosco rescued from a meth home.
