Clear the Shelters

media release: We're teaming up with NBC15 to host the Clear The Shelters pet adoption event.

Throughout the event, we will have special promotions and deals to help clear our shelter. We will also have a big adoption event towards the end of the month-long Clear The Shelters. 

Adoption Specials:

• Aug 12-18 – Cats are 50% off!
• Aug 19-25 – Lonely Hearts Club members are 50% off!
• Aug 26-Sept 1 – Critters are 50% off!
• Sept. 7 - Big Adoption Event 10am to 8pm! - Adoption Specials To Be Announced Friday

Event Details:

Adoptions at DCHS are first come, first served. Most animals are adopted quickly, so those interested in a particular animal should NOT wait to meet them because you might miss out on that animal.

Prior to arriving for the event, we encourage potential adopters to:

• Watch our Adoption Process video to learn what to expect when you adopt from DCHS.
• Check out the animals available for adoption on our website
• Have a couple animals in mind to meet with in case the pet you were interested in is adopted before it’s your turn.

Upon arrival, potential adopters should inform our Adoption staff of who they're interested in meeting so they can be added to that day's waitlist. 

Adopters should bring leashes, carries, and any other supplies needed to bring a pet home that day. The Adoption Center does have these items available for purchase for those who need them.
