San Diego Humane Society has helped 1,432 pets find homes so far this month after offering half-price adoption fees throughout August. Despite those adoptions, the organization said it needs more people to adopt to create space for incoming animals.
“Every adoption creates space for another animal who may have nowhere else to go,” said Dr. Gary Weitzman, president and CEO of San Diego Humane Society. “Our shelters are caring for a remarkable number of animals, and this Saturday is an opportunity for the community to make an immediate, lifesaving difference.”
