If you can't find the animal you've been waiting for at your shelter locally, or even nationally, this group can help you look farther afield
In the U.S. more than 3 million shelter animals are adopted every year. But if you can't find the animal you've been waiting for at your shelter locally, or even nationally, you can look even farther afield. Svetlana Prudovskaya met with the people who make these little miracles happen. Anna Rice narrates her story.
The investigation into Russian influence on the US elections has renewed attention to the Russian ban on US adoptions - a response to American sanctions about 5 years ago. Donald Trump Jr. said that was the topic when he met with a Russian lawyer during his father's election campaign. As Svetlana Prudovskaya of VOA's Russian service reports, the adoption ban has impacted families and children in both countries.
