For the remainder of the month of May, DeKalb County Animal Services will be offering pet adoption specials from the county shelter.

Dogs will be available for $20, while cats can be adopted for $10. Standard adoption screening will still apply, and every animal will be spayed or neutered, microchipped and vaccinated.

Available animals can be seen at the shelter, 845 Camp Road, near Decatur, or online at www.dekalbanimalservices.com.
