A few important notes:
Please click here to read their adoption profiles before the event. Some bios may not yet be available. Interested families must submit an application online and go through our usual screening process.
Dogs will not be going to new homes directly from the event. To learn more about our adoption fees and processes, please refer to the FAQs on our website.
Dogs are not first-come, first-served. Our goal is to ensure that we’re making the best match for both the dog and the family.
PLEASE ASK BEFORE TOUCHING THE DOGS! We try to ensure that only dogs who would be comfortable in such an environment attend our events, however, be sure take cues from their foster parents on when you may touch or interact with the dog.
This is a family-friendly event however we kindly ask that children be closely supervised.
This social event is free and open to all - including furry friends!
See you there!
