The Potter League for Animals is thrilled to announce its participation in the Clear the Shelters™ national pet adoption event. This year, in partnership with Hill’s Pet NutritionGreater Good Charities, & The Dodo, the Potter League will reduce adoption fees by half for dogs, cats, and small mammals on Saturday, August 24, making it easier for families to welcome a new furry friend into their homes.

Now celebrating its 10th year, this initiative continues to make a lasting impact on the lives of animals and the communities that support them. The Potter League is proud to take part in this significant event, furthering its mission to connect animals with loving families.
