$50 Pet Adoptions

It's important to remember that $50 is an incredible price for a dog or cat.  When you adopt from a shelter like the Vanderburgh Humane Society that animal will come to you fully vetted, up to date on shots, spayed or neutered, and microchipped. This event will take place from July 6th through the 31st and the $50 adoption fee is for dogs and cats ages 6 months and up.
