Atlantic County is waiving fees for pet adoptions on Wednesdays through Sept. 6.
PLEASANTVILLE - Beginning Wednesday, June 7 and continuing each Wednesday through Sept. 6, the Atlantic County Animal Shelter is waiving all fees for dogs adopted from its shelter.
The goal of our Waive-Fee Wednesdays' is to promote dog adoptions, Atlantic County Executive Dennis Levinson said in a release. We had great success with our Memorial Day weekend promotion finding homes for eight dogs and nine cats. We hope to build upon that success with these weekly canine promotions.
All adopted dogs receive mandatory sterilization, age-appropriate vaccinations, diagnostic testing, a microchip and a free veterinary consultation as well as two free obedience classes. The normal adoption fee for a dog is $110.
Those interested in taking advantage of this opportunity should call the shelter to make an appointment at 609-485-2345.
The shelter is located at 240 Old Turnpike Road in Pleasantville and is open to the public by appointment 1-4 p.m. seven days a week.
