CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (CLARKSVILLENOW) October is Adopt a Shelter Dog Month, which means it’s the perfect opportunity to help homeless animals find loving, happy homes.
Jeanette Farrell, Director of Montgomery County Animal Care and Control, shared some of the many ways you can help celebrate this important time of year:
Adopt. If you are ready to open your heart and home to an animal in need, consider adopting a pet today.
“We are currently waiving the $25 adoption fee for our shelter dogs,” Farrell said.
Dogs that are already spayed and neutered are $22 (this covers the cost of their rabies vaccine voucher) and dogs that are not spayed and neutered are $72 (this includes their rabies voucher certificate and spay/neuter certificate to participating veterinarians).
