Dog Gone Adoption Event
Community festival hosted to drive awareness for local shelter pets in need
Rutherford County PAWS plans to host a rodeo themed adoption event in partnership with Murfreesboro.com in hopes to bring joy to the community, along with several shelter pets in need of homes. “Dog Gone Adoption Event” will be hosted at PAWS on Saturday, April 20th from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Dust off your boots and grab your hats to join PAWS, sponsors Murfreesboro.com, food vendors Slick Pig BBQ and The Fresh Squeeze TN for a Western Style throwdown including FREE facepainting, games, photo booth, giveaways and more.
PAWS will be drawing for “best dressed” to those who enter the costume contest at 12:00 p.m. for a chance to win a prize. To enter, you must be present at the PAWS table at 12:00 p.m. for staff members to begin judging. The winner will be hand-picked from a jar of the top 5 best dressed, picked by PAWS staff.
“It was so much fun last year seeing the community come together celebrating each and every pet adoption happening. If you are looking for an exciting family event that includes your furry friends, we encourage you to see what it’s all about. Come dressed up! – Gracie Hill, PAWS Public Relations Media Specialist.
PAWS will be providing FREE popcorn and water to all community members who attend. Approved applicants who adopt from PAWS receive a courtesy bag of Hill’s Science Diet pet food and an adoption package with special pet offers, pet parenting tips and info. All available animals are already spayed or neutered and up-to-date on vaccinations.
