The Athens Area Humane Society presents its second multi-shelter pet adoption event, Fall in Love, on Saturday, September 8, 2012 at Sam’s Club (4365 Atlanta Hwy, Bogart, GA 30622) from 11:00am to 4:00pm. Participating shelters with adoptable dogs include: Athens Area Humane Society, Athens-Clarke County Animal Control, Bliss Animal Haven, Circle of Friends, Oconee County Animal Control, Oconee Regional Humane Society, Pound Puppies and Kittens, and Walton Animal Guild. As local animal welfare organizations, our mission to lower the area’s euthanasia rates and to adopt homeless animals to new, loving homes has brought us together for a common cause as partners for this event.
In addition to dog adoptions, the Athens Area Humane Society will have fun carnival-style activities for kids, food from Your Pie, Doodle the Clown, homemade dog treats, B&G Seed locally-made dog food samples, Dogs Deserve Better informational booth, and more! Our goal for the Fall in Love pet adoption event is to adopt 35 dogs and cats to new forever homes. Be sure to mark your calendars so you don’t miss out on this fun-filled day to support the animals in our area! If you would lik to adopt a cat, please visit our Adoption Center in the back of Pet Supplies Plus from 12pm to 6pm that Saturday!

To make it easier for potential adopters to take home animals the day of the event, please complete a Meet Your Match survey (Dog Survey or Cat Survey), have records of your current pets’ up-to-date rabies vaccinations, and proof that your home is pet-friendly (proof of home ownership or current lease agreement that states that pets are allowed in your home). If you’re thinking of adopting a pet, please bring these documents with you to the event to make same day adoptions faster and easier!
