The half-off promotion applies to the shelter's already affordable fees, making it easier for potential adopters to welcome a new pet into their homes. Each adoption includes spay or neuter surgery, initial vaccinations, a microchip, and a personalized ID tag.

Whitney Boylston, Director of Lake County Animal Services, emphasized the importance of giving shelter pets a second chance, stating, “There’s something special about giving a shelter pet a second chance and welcoming them into your family.”

Those interested in adopting can visit the shelter located at 12280 CR 448 in Tavares to meet available dogs or check their current adoptable animals online.
