From Humane Pennsylvania
Pictured above: Macho. Hey there! I’m Macho. I am a 2-year-old, neutered male Husky! I was brought into the shelter because my last family was moving. They stated I have some typical husky quirks and have been with multiple families trying to find the perfect fit. Due to this, I am required to go home with a husky-savvy family who knows what they’re getting into with me. I have lived with cats, dogs, and kids and did great with everyone! Have you owned huskies or other northern breeds in the past? Then, ask to meet me today at the Freedom Center in Reading!
Humane Pennsylvania is celebrating National Change A Pet’s Life Day with a three-day, fee-waived adoption event, generously sponsored by Silverbox Creative Studio. Change A Pet’s Life Day, which falls on Friday, Jan. 24, was created to encourage people to adopt pets from shelters and raise awareness about animals in need. From Friday, Jan. 24, to Sunday, Jan. 26, dogs, cats, and critters at the Berks and Lancaster County shelter campuses will be free to safe, loving homes.
“Adoption fees can often be a hurdle for potential pet parents, and by sponsoring them, we hope to remove that barrier and give these animals the second chance they deserve. Pets have an incredible way of bringing joy, love, and connection into our lives, and celebrating Change a Pet’s Life Day is the perfect opportunity to highlight how impactful adoption can be—for both the animals and the families who welcome them home. We’re honored to support Humane Pennsylvania in their lifesaving work and to help inspire others to open their hearts and homes to a shelter pet,” said Susan Sidoriak of Silverbox Creative Studio.
Silverbox Creative Studio generously sponsored Humane Pennsylvania’s Change a Pet’s Life Day adoption event in 2024, and 29 animals found their “furever” homes.
Adopters wishing to provide a forever home for shelter animals are encouraged to visit the shelter campuses or HumanePA.org.
