Tom Schaeffer’s Camping & Travel Center will host the Happy Camper Sponsored Adoption Weekend starting this Friday, Aug. 9, through Sunday, Aug. 11, at the Animal Rescue League of Berks County (ARL). All available animals six months or older will be free to adopt during the event.
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 to meet and greet 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. and Saturday and Sunday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.; no appointments are necessary. A virtual “line” is set up at www.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.
Tom Schaeffer’s will also be hosting a donation drive on Aug. 10 from noon to 2 p.m. to benefit the ARL at the dealership at 1236 Pottsville Pike, Shoemakersville, PA. Free lunch from Gourmand Cafe food truck with product donation.
As of Aug. 8, Sweet Tart, Matcha, and Bonk are available for adoption at the ARL.
