Description

On your mark, get set, go meet your new best friend! The City of Albuquerque Animal Welfare Department (AWD) will host the "Final Lap to a Forever Home" adoption event Saturday and Sunday, September 20–21, at both the Eastside and Westside city shelters. AWD’s pets have been training for this moment, and they’re ready to zoom across the finish line and straight into your heart.

Part of a continued effort to find loving homes for shelter pets, the event will feature waived adoption fees and on-site counselors to help make the perfect match. Choose from adoptable dogs, cats, and other companion animals ready to start their next chapter.

This exciting weekend is all about giving shelter pets a shot at a better life. From playful pups to cuddly cats, animals at both shelters are eager to dash into a new start. And with adoption, each pet comes with the full starter pack for a healthy future:

• Spaying or neutering.
• Pet tag.
• Microchip
• Vaccinations
• One free initial vet visit.
• PLUS one free session of basic dog training.
• Help us finish strong and get every shelter pet in a forever home.
