Celebrate National Adopt a Shelter Pet Day

National Adopt a Pet Day is Tuesday, April 30, and once again, we need your help. For the past 10 years, NBC 5 and Telemundo 39 have helped our local shelters Clear the Shelters and find furr-ever homes for over 60,000 local animals. The campaign has helped over 1,000,000 animals find loving homes in NBC and Telemundo markets across the country. However, according to Shelter Animals Count more than 6.5 million dogs and cats entered shelters in 2023. Operation Kindness, one of our shelter partners, reported that they broke past records in 2023 by taking in 5,967 animals into its care, up 18% from the year before, and from just January to March of this year, Operation Kindness has already taken in 1,495 dogs and cats in need of medical support, foster care, food, shelter and love.

Those figures just represent one of the North Texas shelters. Please join us and Adopt a Pet Today!

CLEAR THE SHELTERS IS 10 YEARS STRONG:

• Check your local shelter for adoption fee policies.
• Check with your local shelter for their hours of operation and adoption procedures
• Bring proof of residency
