The late probate judge of Hale County approached Rural Studio in mid 2005 asking to provide the design and labor for an animal shelter. The county had a legal obligation to provide an animal shelter, but insufficient resources to build one. Four students designed and built the animal shelter, as well as compiling information about its administration for the county. The roof structure is a lamella system that uses off-the-shelf dimensional lumber to construct a large span.
