Our Off-Site Adoption Events

The current City of Garland's shelter is located in an industrial area, with little street traffic. We increase pet adoptions by taking the dogs and cats to a high traffic area. Currently, we hold off-site adoption events on the 1st and 3rd Saturday of every month. 

Do you want to Volunteer?  Here is how you can help out.

Saturday Adoption Day

Transport Team: 

• Do you have an hour or two on Saturday morning or afternoon from 8:15 to 10:00 or from 3:30 to 4:30? 
• Do you have a pickup truck, van or an SUV that can hold small to large dogs and their crates?

• Help unload the animals at our adoption site and set up their crates.
• Walk the animals during the day and show them off along the street.
• Talk to potential adopters about each animal.
• Help load up animals at the end of the day for return to the shelter.
• Help clean up at the adoption site and load up supplies.

***Adoption events are 10AM - 3PM***
(Volunteers are needed from 8:15AM thru 4PM, you do not need to volunteer for the entire day)
