CELEBRATE THE DOG DAYS OF SUMMER

Lee County Animal Services Offers Dog Adoption Special in August  

Fort Myers, Florida, 7/24/2008–Dogs will be the featured pet at Animal Services throughout the month of August.  The shelter's space to hold dogs is over capacity and adopters are needed to provide permanent homes for the dogs currently at Animal Services so there will be space for incoming animals.  

To encourage people to open their homes, all dogs may be adopted for the low fee of $35.  This includes puppies, regularly $95, and adult dogs, regularly $75.  Senior pets (6 years and over) are always available for only $25 and seniors citizens (65 years and over) may adopt senior pets for fee.   

In addition to the Dog Days of Summer promotion at the shelter, pets will be available for adoption at Jaguar/Audi/Land Rover of Fort Myers on US 41, south of Six Mile Cypress on Saturday, August 2nd and 9th from 10 AM until 2 PM.  Offsite adoption events are held the 1st and 3rd Saturday of every month.  Behaviorists and trainers will be available to help adopters select the best pet for their family.
