The event is a fundraiser for the Society of Humane Friends and the Jail Dog and Cat program run by the Gwinnett County Sheriff’s Office and the Society of Humane Friends. Through the Jail Dog and Cat program, Gwinnett County inmates are paired with shelter animals and train them in preparation for living with their future families.

You can go to the shelter at 884 Winder Highway in Lawrenceville between 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. on Sunday to get the vaccines. Payment is only accepted in cash, and pets must be safely restrained, with dogs on a leash and cats in a crate.
