Good morning, Chesapeake.

Dozens of animals from a closed North Carolina shelter were moved to the Norfolk SPCA where staff are treating sick pets and preparing the animals for adoption — 39 in total, including five dogs and over 30 cats.

The shelter asks the community for donations as it works to find permanent homes for the animals, with one dog and one cat already adopted.

Perdue AgriBusiness on Barnes Road in Chesapeake is celebrating 25 years as a vital shipping hub that supports more than 1,300 local farmers and nearly half of Virginia's soybean crop.

The facility loads over 100 ships and 16,000 containers of soybeans each year to international ports—driving local business and export strength.
