During the promotion, fees for dogs aged between 7 months and 6 years will be lowered by 50%, while adoption fees will be completely waived for dogs over 6 years old. However, dogs younger than 7 months are not included in this offer.

Alice Calabrese, President and CEO of Lollypop Farm, stated, "Every adoption is more than just finding a loving home. It's creating a bond that enriches lives and strengthens our entire community."

All dogs available for adoption undergo evaluations by licensed staff at Lollypop Farm's Klingenstein Veterinary Clinic and are vaccinated, spayed or neutered, and microchipped prior to adoption. The organization also offers free training support to adopters through a partnership with Petcademy, which provides access to certified trainers and online training resources.

Adoption appointments are required from Friday to Monday, with new appointment slots available every Wednesday. For those who are unable to commit to a long-term adoption, Lollypop Farm offers opportunities to foster animals, providing necessary supplies and medical care to foster families.
