AHS, Best Friends Pet Care to Hold Adopt-A-Thon

NORTH PLAINFIELD, NJ – Associated Humane Societies, in partnership with Best Friends Pet Care of North Plainfield will hold its “Hope for Home Adopt-a-Thon,” outside Best Friends Pet Care, 825 Route 22 West, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, June 4.

Best Friends and Associated Humane Societies have joined together a number of times to actively find homes for the hundreds of orphaned dogs and puppies under the Society’s care.

“Once again our friends at Best Friends Pet Care are helping us in our efforts to find forever families for these animals. What a great way to meet your own future best friend,” said Associated Humane Societies/Popcorn Park Executive Director Roseann Trezza. “Although, potential adopters will still have to go through our standard application process, they will get to socialize and learn about the animals outside of our usual shelter setting.”

And along with the adopt-athon, there will be free food, music, face painting, prizes, goody bags, and free literature on successfully adopting, and training your dog .

The fee to adopt any dog the day of the event is discounted to $125 which includes spay or neuter, rabies vaccination, basic immunizations, and micro-chipping, along with free goody bags from Best Friends. For more information please contact (908) 822-9200.
