San Diego Humane Society To Waive Pet Adoption Fees To Clear The Shelters

SAN DIEGO, CA — San Diego Humane Society will waive all pet adoption fees Saturday for Clear the Shelters Day.

The special promotion takes place from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Additionally, the nonprofit organization is offering 50% off adoptions for the month of August.

The August promotions are part of the national Clear the Shelters campaign, which encourages pet adoption during a time when shelters across the country, including San Diego Humane Society, are at or over capacity.

"If you are thinking about adding a pet to your family, we'd love for you to come and meet the incredible animals in our care," said Dr. Gary Weitzman, president and CEO of San Diego Humane Society. "There's nothing more rewarding than giving an animal a second chance — and gaining a loyal companion who will love you unconditionally."

All animals adopted from San Diego Humane Society are spayed or neutered, microchipped and vaccinated.

San Diego Humane Society is open for walk-in adoptions Tuesday through Sunday at shelters in El Cajon, Escondido, Oceanside and San Diego. Adoption hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Friday, and 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.
