Adopt a Shelter Pet Day!
The Nevada Humane Society (NHS), a nonprofit animal shelter servicing northern Nevada, is approaching 80% capacity at its Reno shelter and is asking the community to consider adopting a dog to help alleviate space constraints.
To support this effort, NHS will host special adoption events on Saturday, May 3, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. at both its Reno and Carson City campuses. During the event, adoption fees will be waived for dogs in the shelter for more than 14 days, and all others will be available at half price.
Individuals can view all adoptable dogs in advance by visiting the NHS website. On the day of the event, the Salty Paws Ice Cream Truck will be on-site at the Reno Campus, located at 2825 Longley Lane, Reno, NV 89502, offering free doggie treats for newly adopted pets from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The Carson City Campus, also hosting an event, is located at 549 Airport Road, Carson City, NV 89701.
