(Bowling Green)—The Wood County Humane Society (WCHS) will celebrate Father’s Day weekend by offering special adoption rates for some of its residents.
From Wednesday, June 17 through Sunday, June 21, the organization will offer reduced adoption fees for all male felines and canines over 6 months of age. On those dates only, all male cats aged 6 months and older will be adoptable for $5. All male dogs aged 6 months or older will be adoptable at 50% off their usual adoption fee.
Adoption hours at the shelter, which is located at 801 Van Camp Road, Bowling Green, are Wednesday and Thursday from 12 to 7 p.m. and Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 12 to 4 p.m. All adoptions include the spay or neuter of the cat, distemper and rabies vaccines, FIV/FeLV test, microchip, and free physical examination at local participating veterinarians. In order to receive the special adoption fee, adoptions must be completed same day. Adoptions are only completed with an approved application.
The WCHS, located in Bowling Green, Ohio, is a full-service, no-kill shelter providing care for homeless and abused pets and investigating cruelty complaints in Wood County. In addition, the organization assists Wood County residents with its Safe Haven and food assistance programs, spay/neuter transport, and educational presentations. The WCHS provides care for hundreds of animals each year—from dogs and cats, to horses, goats, and pocket pets. The non-profit organization is funded predominantly through donations from local individuals and businesses, Community Shares of Northwest Ohio (a workplace giving campaign), and fundraisers. The Wood County Commissioners help fund a Humane Agent, but the organization receives no additional funding from national humane organizations, the United Way, or the government.
