The Lake County Animal Shelter will honor veterans this Veterans Day with its Pets for Vets promotion, waiving adoption fees for veterans from Nov. 12-30. The promotion encourages veterans to visit the shelter, meet adoptable pets, and find a new best friend to share life’s adventures.
“Veterans have given so much in service to our country, and we are deeply grateful for the sacrifices they’ve made,” said Whitney Boylston, director of Lake County Animal Services. “We hope to show our appreciation by offering a gift that brings comfort, companionship, and unconditional love. Adopting a pet can make a meaningful difference in someone’s life, and we hope this gesture brings veterans as much happiness as they have given to others.”
The Lake County Animal Shelter offers adoption counseling Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 1 to 6 pm, and Saturday and Sunday from 1 to 5 pm.
Every adoption includes:
- Spay or neuter surgery
- Initial vaccinations
- A microchip and personalized identification tag
- A lifetime of love!
Veterans can visit the shelter throughout the promotion to meet adoptable pets and find their perfect match. To learn more about the adoption process and view available pets, visit lakecountyfl.gov/165/Adoptions.
