Fairhope, Ala.- You can help a homeless pet find love during the PetSmart Charities Second Chance for Love National Adoption Weekend this Sept. 11-12. Hill’s Science Diet Brand and PetSmart are the proud sponsors of this adoption event, which will be held in all 1,149 PetSmart stores in the United States and Canada.

The Haven Adoption Guarantee Animal Shelter is proud to be teaming up with more than 2,000 animal-welfare agencies throughout North America who are expected to participate and will be presenting adoptable pets at every PetSmart Charities in-store adoption center. The event will take place Saturday, Sept. 11, and Sunday, Sept. 12 from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m. on both days with a collective nationwide goal of finding homes for 16,100 dogs, cats and small animals.

One of the ways The Haven is contributing to creating a “no-kill” community is by pulling animals from the community shelters and placing these fixed pets into life-long loving homes, therefore reducing euthanasia and intakes in our local animal shelters.

Please be a hero and choose adoption when adding a new furry friend to your life. For more information please contact The Haven at 251-929-3980 or email us at thehaven4animals@yahoo.com. You can also visit us on our website at www.havenforanimals.org

About The Haven Adoption Guarantee Animal Shelter

The Haven rescues, re-habilitates, and re-homes over 900 animals each year serving Baldwin County since 2000. The non-profit animal shelter is responsible for leading the four municipal animal control shelters into creating a no-kill society for companion pets, caring for over 70 homeless cats and dogs at the shelter on any given day, and finding loving homes for these homeless, injured, neglected and abused and abandoned animals. All animals are vaccinated, evaluated both behaviorally and medically, fed, watered and marketed until they find their forever home.
