Bill introduced to give tax credits for adopting pets from animal shelters
A bill has been introduced to get more people to adopt their next pet from an animal shelter. 
Brooklyn's borough president is calling on Albany to approve a $100 tax credit for those who rescue a dog or cat. 
Eric Adams says it's time to give animal lovers an incentive to stay away from pet stores.
