Building renovations at the Oak Ridge Animal Shelter start today and could take two weeks to complete.

In a statement Friday, Oak Ridge Police Department Lt. Charles R. Smith said the remodeling includes an examination room and clinic, as well as upgrading the lobby area.

While the building is being renovated, the animal shelter, located on Belgrade Road, will be open for business Tuesday through Saturday from 2–6 p.m. Visitors and volunteers will be able to enter the shelter through the kennel entrance, the statement said.
