Dogs typically cost $45 to adopt and cats typically cost $30. Other animals, like Peep, typically cost $10. But through the end of the month, they’re all free to a good home.
All animals are spayed or neutered before they go home with their new owner. They also receive a medical exam, vaccinations and a microchip.
The shelter is open Monday through Thursday from 11 a.m. until 6 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m. It is located at 884 Winder Highway in Lawrenceville.
