CENTRAL OHIO (WCMH) – If you’re looking for a furry friend to add to your family, there’s no better time to do so than today.
NBC4 has partnered with area animal rescues for Clear the Shelters to find forever homes for as many pets as possible in one day.
Last year, more than 53,000 pets found new homes during the nationwide Clear the Shelters campaign. Adopting a pet is simple: All you have to do is go to a participating shelter today, find your future pet and fill out the adoption paperwork. Each cat or dog’s adoption fees will either be reduced or waived entirely.
As of 5pm Saturday, 92 dogs had been adopted as part of the Clear the Shelters at our partner locations in Delaware, Fairfield, Fayette, Franklin, Hardin, and Union counties.
The following Central Ohio shelters are participating in Clear the Shelters:
- Franklin County Dog Shelter & Adoption Center – 4340 Tamarack Blvd., Columbus, OH
