Denver Pet Adoptions 50% Off Through Dec. 31

Denver Dumb Friends League is offering an awesome holiday adoption special through Dec. 31. Adopt a cat or dog for 50 percent off regular adoption fees. That's a pretty good deal since cat adoption fees typically range from $55 to $115, and dog adoption fees range from $50 to $300. 

Each pet’s adoption fee includes spay/neuter surgery, initial vaccinations, microchip ID implant and registration, a bag of Hill Science Diet pet food and a free office visit with a participating veterinarian. Currently, the League has more than 275 super pets available on any given day and would like to find each of them a good, loving home. 

Dumb Friends has several outposts, the main one being the Quebec Street Shelter at 2080 S. Quebec St. in Denver. They also have the Buddy Center at 4556 Castleton Ct. in Castle Rock, as well as the adoption center in Northfield-Stapleton and its mobile adoption unit, the Pet Care-avan.
