ACCT Philly, the main open-intake animal shelter in the city, is using adoption rewards for homeless canines this Thanksgiving week.
Sarah Barnett, acting co-executive director for the not-for-profit, on Wednesday stated the shelter is complete with more than 100 canines. Recently, more than 140 canines were given the shelter in North Philadelphia, she stated.
On Friday, all adoption charges for canines will be waived, she stated.
” There is such a lack of adopters today, and it’s heartbreaking to see truly excellent canines being in a kennel … awaiting somebody who might never ever come,” Barnett stated in a declaration.
” We hope that individuals thinking about embracing will choose to embrace in your area, and conserve a life by embracing from the shelter,” Barnett stated.
Individuals thinking about embracing are motivated to complete an online application ahead of checking out the shelter at 111 W. Searching Park Ave.
The shelter will be open Friday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
