VERO BEACH, Fla. — The Humane Society of Vero Beach said they've done it before, and now they want to adopt 100 animals again for their Clear The Shelter's event.

On Saturday, Aug. 24, the rescue plans to offer free adoptions of dogs, cats, and rabbits.

"Clear the Shelters Day initiative has helped more than one million pets find their forever home," said Mary Catherine Morton, the marketing and communications specialist for HSVB.

Free adoptions include:

  • Spay/neuter
  • Vaccines
  • Microchip
  • Adoption photo
  • Leash and collar

The Clear the Shelter event will take place at the HSVB from 10 a.m. - 4 p.m., or until the shelter is cleared.
The shelter is located at 6230 77th Street in Vero Beach. The shelter will be closed on Friday in order to prepare for the event. Animals available for adoption can be viewed by clicking here.
