Rescues and Shelters
My Furry Valentine is proud to host the following rescues and shelters at the 2017 Main Event at the Convention Center. Click any organization to learn more about them, including their mission, adoption fees, and to view their adoptable animals (we are working to add links to the remaining groups on the list and will complete those shortly!).*
Please be aware that some groups require applications to be submitted and approved BEFORE the event, so please carefully review their adoption requirements. You should bring these three things with you if you want to adopt an animal at the Main Event:
- Photo identification
- Copy of your Lease if you lease your residence
- Copy of veterinarian records to show that your current pets have been kept up to date on recommended annual vaccines
