Adoption Event at PetSmart on Saturday

Texarkana Animal League is hosting an adoption event on Saturday at PetSmart in Texarkana to accept applications for adopting or fostering homeless dogs and cats. Passion for Pooches Rescue will also be there. There will be a variety of dogs and cats looking for homes.

Adoption fees vary per dog, and cat adoption fees are $80. All of these animals are current on their vaccines and have been spayed or neutered; many are even microchipped. Occasionally, puppies have been vaccinated, but not yet spayed or neutered. In these cases, a sterilization agreement is required as part of the adoption contract.

Texarkana Animal League (TAL) is a 501c3 nonprofit run by a group of volunteers that is dedicated to improving the welfare of animals in our
community.

Rescues will have their adoptable dogs available to pet, visit with and ask questions about to see if the dog would be a good fit for your home. Adoption fees vary per dog and per rescue. Not all of the local rescues will be at this event so for information about dogs that are available through local rescues, visit these Facebook pages or find them on Petfinder: Little Paws Rescue, Passion for Pooches, Texarkana Animal League, Muttley Crew German Shepherd Rescue, ArkLaTex Cocker Spaniel Rescue and Boxer Rescue of Texarkana.

Please consider adoption before buying a puppy or kitten. Adoption fees and donations will help the rescues in the care of their rescued animals as well as Texarkana Animal League's community outreach programs such as a low-income spay/neuter assistance program, rescue assistance program and foster care program.

TAL's belief that all animals are deserving of life, respect and care. TAL provides the shelter's animals with all of the necessary vaccinations & medications from funds raised throughout the year.
