Due to overcrowding, the Capital Humane Society is running a special adoption promotion to find homes for the dogs and puppies in the shelter.
Starting today, adoption fees on all dogs 5 months & older available for adoption at the Pieloch Pet Adoption Center are reduced by 50% through Sunday, October 8th. License & rabies fees may still apply.
Additionally, Executive Director of The Capital Humane Society Matt Madcharo is offering guidance to the community to help manage this increase in canines coming to Capital Humane Society. There are several ways to help:
- Consider adopting a new canine companion during the adoption promotion.
- If you are unable to adopt, help spread the word to friends and family members who may be interested in adopting a new canine companion.
- Sign up to be a foster parent on the Capital Humane Society website.
- If your dog/puppy is not spayed/neutered, strongly consider having your pet fixed. If financially this is a challenge, reach out to Capital Humane Society to see if you qualify for financial assistance to have your pet spayed/neutered.
- Keep your pet updated on basic, preventative vaccinations. Capital Humane Society has seen a significant increase in canines with parvovirus in the community. This disease can be prevented with preventative vaccinations. If financially this is a challenge, reach out to Capital Humane Society to see if you qualify for the Pawsitive Impact Project.
Hours for the Pieloeh Pet Adoption Center: Wednesday through Friday — 11:30am-7:00pm Saturday & Sunday — 12:00pm-5:00pm
