Local Shelters Participate in Pet Adoption Days

Maddie’s Pet Project of Nevada is excited to announce that registration is now open for the Spring Maddie’s Pet Adoption Days being held Friday, June 11 & Saturday, June 12, 2021. Thanks to funding provided by the Dave & Cheryl Duffield Foundation, all adoption fees are being waived for dogs and cats at participating animal welfare organizations across Nevada during this two-day event. In Churchill County, Fallon Animal Welfare Group (FAWG) and Churchill Animal Protection Society (CAPS) will both be participating. CAPS will be open for extended hours from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. each day, as well as FAWG which will be open from 9:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. both days.

Maddie’s Pet Adoption Days are traditionally held twice a year. The September 2020 adoption event resulted in 1,851 animals (1,068 cats and 783 dogs) being adopted from 44 participating Nevada animal welfare organizations, including large and small animal shelters and private rescues. More than 7,600 animals have found their forever homes during the Maddie’s Pet Adoption Days event in the past three years.
