If you’ve been looking to add a four-legged, furry member to your family, this weekend is the time to do it. Three local animal shelters have temporarily reduced or waived adoption fees:
Wanderers’ Rest Humane Association
- 7138 Sutherland Drive, Canastota; (315) 697-2796
- facebook.com/wanderersrest or wanderersrest.org
From noon to 5 p.m. Saturday, July 8, adoption fees for coonhound mix Bon Jovi and pit bull mix Mya have been waived.
Meet Mya:
My name is Mya (though, they keep calling me “pretty girl”). You can call me whatever you want. Let me tell you a little about myself: I really like squeaker toys and balls! I can even entertain myself with them, throwing them in the air and kicking them around. The people here taking care of me say it’s hilarious. I LOVE my people, especially if I get the chance to know them. However, I do not like to be bothered by other animals, so please, I want a home where I can be the Queen Bee and the only pet begging for your attention. If you take the chance to get to know me, I promise I will not let you down!
Meet Bon Jovi:
Let me tell you the “Story Of My Life.” I was found as a “Runaway” (stray), so now I’m just “Livin’ On A Prayer.” I am full of life and love to play! I would love an active family who will run around with me and let me show off my goofy nature. “Love’s The Only Rule” I have as “I Just Want To Be Your Man.” I promise “I’ll Be There For You” because “It’s My Life!” So come on, stop in to say hello to me today and let’s “Make a Memory.” 🙂
Four other dogs’ fees have been reduced to $35: Franklin, Liza, Walter and Mr. Peabody. Click on their names to learn more.
