Join us this Veterans Day for a special FREE adoption event for qualifying pets at the Devore and Big Bear Animal Shelters.

Adoptions are offered FREE for EVERYONE to celebrate Veterans Day! As a token of our appreciation for their courage, service, and dedication, our year-round adoption program for VETERANS also offers adoption of one qualifying pet every six months at no cost with a valid driver’s license or identification document with “VETERAN” indicated.

Each qualifying adoption includes spay/neuter, a microchip, and age-appropriate vaccinations. To help ease your transition to pet parenthood, MetLife Pet Insurance offers 30 days of complimentary pet insurance.

To learn more about how you can help support the Devore and Big Bear Animal Shelters—or to view details about MetLife’s adoption benefit—please visit arffund.org.
