Dog August Nights Promises Free Adoptions and Community Fun
Cindy Burnham from Hitchcock Road Animal Services announced an exciting upcoming event, \"Dog August Nights,\" set for this Sunday from 2 PM to 5 PM. This second annual event aims to promote pet adoption by waiving all adoption and pet licensing fees, making it easier for families to welcome a new furry friend into their homes.

The event will feature 30 adoptable dogs, 32 cats, and various small animals, including bunnies and guinea pigs. Local rescue partners will also be present to provide information and resources, enhancing the community's understanding of pet adoption and care. Food trucks will be on-site, creating a festive atmosphere for attendees.

Burnham emphasized the importance of community engagement in the adoption process, noting that events like this help foster a friendly environment for potential pet owners. She highlighted the shelter's ongoing collaboration with local rescue groups, which allows for a more comprehensive approach to animal welfare and adoption.

In addition to the event, Burnham introduced a new pet licensing program in partnership with Docupet, aimed at simplifying the registration process for pet owners. This program will include a 24/7 lost pet service, enhancing the safety and security of pets in the community.

The shelter remains open for adoptions throughout the week, but \"Dog August Nights\" is designed to celebrate and promote the joy of adopting a pet. Burnham expressed hope that the community will come out to support the event and consider adopting or fostering animals in need.
