Huntsville Paws-itive Vibes: St. Pitty’s Week is Back!
Hey, animal lovers! Huntsville is buzzing with excitement as the Huntsville Animal Services kicks off its annual St. Pitty’s Week adoption campaign starting March 17 and running through March 22. If you’ve been thinking about welcoming a furry friend into your home, now is the perfect time! This heartwarming event features waived adoption fees for all pit bulls and pit bull mixes, making it an incredible opportunity to find a loyal companion without breaking the bank.
Welcoming Affectionate Paws
It’s a little-known fact that pit bulls often find themselves waiting longer than other breeds to be adopted. These lovable pups have earned a reputation for their loyalty and affection, and the goal of this campaign is to help them find their forever homes. Each dog’s kennel during the event will even be decked out with a cheerful shamrock, making it super easy for potential pet parents to spot them. Adopting a new pet is a big step, and the staff at Huntsville Animal Services are eager to help you along the way!
Special Adoption Benefits
When you choose to adopt a pit bull or pit bull mix during this special week, you’re not just getting a furry friend—you’re also receiving a host of valuable services. Each adoption package includes spay/neuter surgery, vaccinations, microchipping, and even a City of Huntsville license. It’s a comprehensive way to ensure your new companion starts their life with you on the right paw!
Join the “Adopt-on-the-Spot” Event
Mark your calendars for the exciting “Adopt-on-the-Spot” event happening on March 22 from 1 to 3 p.m. at Starbucks in the Village of Providence (20 Town Center Drive NW). This is a fantastic chance to meet face-to-face with some adorable pit bulls looking for love. Staff will be on hand to assist with any paperwork and to answer all your burning questions about the adoption process. They’ll also accept cash or checks, making it easier for you to walk away with a new furry family member!
