MOHAVE COUNTY – The Mohave County Animal Shelter is filled to capacity with beautiful dogs who would love nothing more than to be adopted into a loving home.
To help ease our overcrowding – Best Friends Animal Society is sponsoring adoption fees on all of our adult dogs over 35 pounds.
The shelter at 3423 N Burbank St Kingman is open for adopting Mon-Sat 10AM-5PM.
They will be hosting a special Clear The Shelter Event on Saturday, October 12 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. with volunteers on site to help you find your perfect companion. They have dogs of assorted ages and sizes perfect to be your new fur-ever companion as well as cats.
They will be at PetSmart in Kingman and Bullhead on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. for a Puppy Palooza!
Jessica Gutman, Senior Regional Strategist – Mountain West Best Friends Animal Society says, “Shelters in Arizona and across the country, are trying their best to save lives, but need more help from the community to step-up by fostering or adoption. Data from Best Friends Animal Society shows that nationally pet adoption steadily declined over the last five years, while shelter intakes increased as more people acquired pets from breeders and pet stores. However, if just 6% more people chose to adopt instead of purchasing a pet, we could stop the killing of cats and dogs in America’s shelters.”
Upon adoption all dogs and cats are spayed or neutered; microchipped and current on vaccines. Each adoption comes with a free wellness check with a local veterinarian and a coupon book from PetSmart with huge savings on everything you will need for your new family member.
