Puppy Extravaganza Update

The Puppy Extravaganza on Saturday, June 6 led to a happy home for two of our puppies.  "We are hoping to increase the number of adoptions at our extravaganzas to match last year's success," said Becky Thomas, adoption coordinator.  Last year the extravaganzas averaged 10 adoptions per event.  "Attendance has been low at our extravaganzas so far this year, but I hope we can get the word out to increase adoptions," Becky said. The Puppy Extravaganzas are held every other Saturday from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. in the parking lot of the Lee County Humane Society.  Puppies are available for adoption at a reduced adoption fee of $60.  This fee includes microchipping, all vaccines except rabies, deworming, a bag of Science Diet dog food, coupons for Petco, a free vet visit and 30 day dog insurance.  Potential adopters should bring a record of their current pet(s)' vaccinations.  Any current pet(s) are required to have rabies vaccinations before an adoption can occur.  Potential adopters who rent their home should bring a copy of their lease and proof of their pet deposit.  "The extravaganzas are a good opportunity for adopters to see the puppies outside of regular adoption times during the week," said Becky.  The next Puppy Extravaganza will be Saturday, June 21 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.
