In the end, the luck will flow both ways, but it begins with you being a lucky charm for a shelter pet like Miss Piggy, Katie bunny, Starscream kitty, pups Rin and Redford pictured above, or any of our other amazing shelter animals.
If you are looking for a bounty of love and gratitude, you couldn’t find a bigger pot o’ gold than a furry or scaly friend. The County of San Diego Animal Services is offering a $17 adoption fee special starting on St. Patrick’s Day through the weekend for all animals.
If you’re interested, check out some of the available pets on the Animal Services website.
The Be a Lucky Charm for a Shelter Pet adoption fee special runs from Friday, March 17 through March 19. Fees include spaying or neutering, a microchip, updated vaccinations and a one-year dog license for those in the service area. The adoption fee for a dog normally costs $75. The fee for a cat is normally $65.
Walk-in hours are from 1 to 4 p.m. Tuesday through Friday and from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday at both the South Shelter, 5821 Sweetwater Road in Bonita, or the North Shelter, 2481 Palomar Airport Road in Carlsbad.
Fill out an application online to print or pick one up at the shelter. Applications can also be emailed but it is quicker to go in person.
If you cannot adopt, consider fostering animals or volunteering for the shelter. For more information, call (619) 767-2675 or visit the Animal Services main website.
