Gwinnett Animal Welfare wants to make your holidays memorable with free pet adoptions during their “Home for the Howlidays” event.

“The response to our call for adopters over the last month was incredible and we would love to clear the shelter so that each cat and dog can find a warm, loving home for the holidays,” said Alan Davis, director of Gwinnett Animal Welfare and Enforcement. “We are waiving adoption fees through the month of December.”

The shelter is also providing free family and pet photos with Santa 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 7 at 884 Winder Highway in Lawrenceville.

All pets adopted have been vaccinated, neutered and microchipped. Dogs that have tested heartworm positive will be treated before going home. The standard adoption fee is $45 for dogs and puppies and $30 for cats and kittens.
