The animal shelter in La Porte has started a new program with police to encourage pet adoption. Officers are taking photos with a pet of the week, then they post them on social media to give the animals a better chance of finding a home. Pictures of the animals up for adoption can be seen on the shelter's Facebook page by clicking here.

Fox 26 photojournalist Darlene Janik Faires shows us how the program is going.
