Had a “ruff” year? Looking to find that special someone to complete your family?
For those who may be considering pet adoption, the City of Tamarac is making it quite simple.
Broward County Animal Care & Adoption is bringing their furry friends to Gary B. Jones Park to meet prospective parents.
“These events out in the community have been very successful in the past,” said Vice Mayor Michael Udine, adding this is the first one since the pandemic began.
Adoptions include spaying/neutering, all vaccinations, a Broward County License pet tag, and a microchip. Plus, all adoption fees will be waived.
“We rescued our dog, Clifford, about ten years ago,” said Udine. “These rescue and adopted dogs help complete a family.”
