From Animal Rescue League of Berks County
Pictured above, from left to right: Batman, Sadie, and Toupee were available for adoption as of Wednesday, June 25.
The Animal Rescue League of Berks County (ARL) will host a sponsored adoption day on Friday, June 27, thanks to the support of Brentwood Industries. During the event, all pets over 6 months of age will be free to adopt.
All adopters must go through the ARL’s regular procedures to adopt, including completing an adoption profile and speaking with an adoption counselor to ensure that the pet they select is a good match for their home, family, and lifestyle.
Adopters are encouraged to bring their family members to meet their new pet at the time of adoption, and to bring their dogs from home for a meet and greet with other dogs at the shelter. Dog adopters will also want to bring cash or a check for a $9.20 dog license, which is required at the time of adoption under PA law. Adopters will also want to bring a cat carrier (or they can purchase one from the ARL for $5) and a dog collar and leash (or they can purchase one from the ARL).
The ARL will be open on Friday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.; no appointments are necessary. A virtual “line” is set up at berksarl.org/hello, where guests can check in when they arrive at the shelter. All guests will be able to check their place in line and be notified by text when it’s their turn to work with an adoption counselor.
For more information, please get in touch with the ARL at adoption@berksarl.org. To view the available pets, visit berksarl.org/pets.
