Clinton Animal Shelter·We are looking for pet friendly businesses in the Clinton area that would allow us to come in and do PET POP UPS. This might only be 1 to 3 dogs, or it could be a kennel of cats or kittens.
We would advertise ahead of time that we are going to be at your business, and it would only be for an hour or two or however long you would allow us to stay. No work on your part! Just allow us to hang out. This gives people another place to come to meet the pet besides the shelter.
These types of events get our homeless pets out in public and seen. It also gets them more socialization and out of the shelter. In the long run, we hope it helps them find their forever home.
To get put on the list of places that would do a Pet Pop Up or for more details please email – tlbwilliams94@gmail.com or call/text 660-351-2834.
