In an effort to encourage adoptions and make the process as accessible as possible, Animal Services will waive the adoption fees for pets that are four months and older. Prospective pet owners will only need to cover a $30 tag fee. Each adopted pet are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped, ensuring they are ready to start a new life with their adoptive families.
Moreover, the event will feature the Wellness on Wheels (WOW) Mobile Unit, which will offer low-cost rabies vaccines for just $5 and free microchipping. The WOW unit operates on a walk-in basis, so no appointment is necessary.
