Clear The Shelters Day is Saturday, August 15th.
The Animal Rescue League of Boston (ARL) and New England Cable News Network (NECN) have joined forces to encourage the public to visit local animal shelters and adopt a pet on Saturday, August 15, 2015 for national Clear the Shelters Day. American Blanket Company is proud to be participating with ARL by donating super soft and cozy blankets that will be part of their Super Pet Pack that gets sent home with a newly adopted cat or dog. Summer is a very busy time of year for shelters and this program is aimed to reduce the amount of cats and dogs waiting for good homes by offering a reduced adoption fee ($50 off the regular adoption fee for cats & dogs 1 year and older). All adoptable animals at the ARL also receive the following included in their adoption fee: spay or neuter services, a full medical screening, vaccinations, a microchip, and a behavioral evaluation.
Animal Rescue League of Boston has three local area shelters located in Boston, Dedham and Brewster. For more information visit http://www.arlboston.org/.
