This May 1st, 2010, is the DFW Humane Society’s Lone Star Pet Adoptathon Weekend, sponsored by the Texas Animal Shelter Coalition. It’s an annual event where hundreds of animal welfare organizations across Texas join together to promote shelters and pet rescue and pet placement partners as the best places to find your next dog or cat.
Sadly, less than 15 percent of future pet owners actually visit animal shelters to search for their furry friends. Most people turn to breeders, pet stores or pet ads. But by adopting an animal from a shelter or rescue group, you are saving two lives–the pet you adopt and the pet you make room for by adopting. These homeless and stray dogs and cats need good, loving families to give them life -long care.
If you are looking for a dog, cat, puppy or kitten, come see us this weekend. Stop by The Ballpark at Arlington, May 1-2, to adopt a pet during the Lone Star Pet Adoptathon Weekend.
