PetSmart National Summer Adoption Weekend Day 1

July 25 @ 11:00 am - 3:00 pm

PetSmart National Adoption Weekend – Day 1

📍 PetSmart – Newburgh, NY
📅 Saturday, July 25
⏰ 11:00 AM – 3:00 PM

It’s the biggest adoption weekend of the season, and Happy Life Animal Rescue is excited to kick off PetSmart National Adoption Weekend in Newburgh!

Join us to meet dozens of adoptable dogs and puppies, each searching for a loving forever home. Whether you’re looking for an adventurous hiking buddy, a playful family companion, or a best friend to curl up with on the couch, there’s a good chance you’ll meet your perfect match.

Our adoption counselors will be on hand throughout the event to help you find the right fit and answer any questions about the adoption process. Many of our available dogs have recently arrived and are making their public debut, so you’ll have the chance to meet some of our newest rescue pups before anyone else!
