The society closed the dog shelter last April because of high operating costs, resulting in a reorganization of OPHS staffing and leadership. The Bark House will begin accepting stray and surrendered animals, by appointment, starting on Saturday with a low-key public open house from 12:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. (Keith Thorpe/Peninsula Daily News)
