We've written before about the work of the San Luis Valley Animal Welfare Society, and their weekly pet adoption fairs at the North Academy Blvd. PetSmart in  Colorado Springs.     

Thanks to the sponsorship of PetSmart and Hill's Science Diet, the Society will be taking part in PetSmart Charities' Second Chance For Love Fall Adoption Weekend.  Nationally, the goal is to fnd forever homes for 18,800 derserving pets! 

At least 75 dogs and puppies - plus a few kitties - will be along for the Colorado Springs pet adoption event, every one wishing to meet their own special human(s).  If you've been thinking of adding a new family member, you'll have plenty of lovable creatures to pick from. 

Other fine animal rescue groups will also be participating, so you'll have numerous cats plus small animals to choose from as well. 

Hours are Friday and Saturday from 10 am to 7 pm and Sunday 10 am to 6 pm.  The event will take place at the PetSmart near Constitution and Powers, 2965 New Center Point.   Every adopter will receive valuable coupons and free samples, and rumor is that there will be some prize drawings, too. 

Can you give a rescued pet a second chance for love and a responsible, permanent home?  In return, you'll get licks, snuggles and faithful companionship.  And possibly even undying adoration!  Doesn't that sound like a win-win situation?
