SUMMARY:We are Full Adoption Event
DESCRIPTION:All ARL locations\nIA\n                    \n\n\n            Contact:  \n             (adoptions@arl-iowa.org) \nTHIS JUST IN: A few weeks ago\, we made an urgent call to adopters to help us make space in the shelter for a number of pets in crisis. Unfortunately\, we still are unable to share details of that rescue operation\, but sadly\, in the last 24 hours\, a NEW SITUATION HAS EMERGED that is even more urgent. \nWe are asking for your help again. We desperately need to empty as many kennels in the shelter as possible\, so today-Sunday\, adoption fees for all dogs and cats ages 6 months+ will be just $25 at all ARL locations. \nWe can only help animals in need with your support\, and we hope to be able to speak publicly about these situations soon. In the meantime\, please spread the word to help as many pets find homes as possible and open up space for other pets who need it. \nAll our dogs and cats are already spayed/neutered\, vaccinated\, and microchipped. Adopters also receive discounts on ARL training classes and at our Animal House store! \nSmall print: Available for adoptions completed Sept. 19-21\, 2025. Cannot be combined with any other offers.

Before you adopt\, you’ll have the opportunity to hear directly from the people who know them best. Learn about their personality\, favorite activities\, leash manners\, home habits\, and all the little quirks that make them special. \nAs an added bonus\, all dogs 6+ months participating in the event will have adoption fees that are 50% off during the event. \nThe event will be held at the ARL’s Bailey’s Bark Park and will move to the ARL’s new indoor dog park in the event of inclement weather. \nSpend time with adoptable dogs in a relaxed park setting\, ask questions\, and get first-hand insight from the dedicated foster families who have helped these pets prepare for their next chapter. You just might meet your perfect match. \nWe hope to see you there![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_message message_box_color=”green” icon_fontawesome=”fa fa-solid fa-dog” css=””] \nThis project has been supported by a grant from PEDIGREE Foundation. \n[/vc_message][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]NOTE: Dogs attending the event will be announced one day prior to the event. Adoptions are first-come\, first-served basis\, so dogs scheduled to be at the event may be adopted before the event begins. If the dog you are interested in is no longer able to attend the event\, we’ll be happy to introduce you to other dogs that would be a great match. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
