DOGust 1st

Pensacola Humane Society is teaming up with North Shore Animal League America in partnership with Baby Doge to PAW-TY! Join these partners in animal rescue as they celebrate DOGust 1st®, the universal birthday for all rescue dogs, during a celebration throughout the week of August 1st featuring adoption specials.

From Tuesday, Aug. 2 through Saturday, Aug. 6, Pensacola Humane Society is celebrating the dogs and puppies in their care with reduced adoption fees.

• Adoption fees for dogs under 8-years-old will be $10
• Adoption fees for dogs 8-years-old and older will be waived completely
• Adoption fees for any cat will be $10

Pensacola Humane Society is open to the public Tuesdays through Saturday from 11:00am until 4:00pm. No appointments necessary. Stop by any time during open hours to meet any pets that are available for adoption. You can also view the gallery of adoptable animals by visiting www.pensacolahumane.org and click on the “Adopt” drop-down menu.

To commemorate this year’s DOGust 1st, celebrations are being hosted by more fifty (50) of Animal League America’s shelter partners across the country throughout the week. The five shelters that record the most adoptions during this window will win monetary prizes thanks to this partnership with Baby Doge. For more details visit www.animalleague.org/DOGust1st.

Since the actual dates of birth for most rescued dogs are unknown, North Shore Animal League America created DOGust 1st to celebrate rescue dogs (those adopted and those still in shelters awaiting loving homes.) Since 2008, these “mutt-i-grees” have had this day designated to honor the incredible impact they make on our lives.

And remember, it may be DOGust, but many felines are looking for loving homes, too (especially now during the height of kitten season.)

WHEN: TUESDAY, AUGUST 2 – SATURDAY, AUGUST 6
11 a.m. – 4 p.m.

WHERE: PENSACOLA HUMANE SOCIETY, 5 N. Q Street
