Event features extended shelter hours, open dog pods, and $50 adult-dog reduced adoption fees

NORTH COUNTY — Woods Humane Society welcomes the community to enjoy extended shelter hours and reduced adult-dog adoption fees during its “Electric Doggy Carnival” nights on Wednesday, July 30.

A play on the name of an electronic music festival, the Electric Doggy Carnival will take place at the San Luis Obispo location only, which will be open from 12 to 7 p.m. both evenings. Both dog and cat housing areas will be open to the public, and adult dog adoption fees will be reduced to just $50.

“This fun event extends our open hours beyond 5 p.m. to offer the community increased accessibility to adoption during a time of year when the days are long and warm, and when we often see dog adoptions dip due to summer travel,” says Woods Humane Society CEO Emily L’Heureux. “We invite potential adopters to come out, beat the heat, and meet their new best friend.”

Woods Humane Society currently has 34 dogs in its care with more coming in each day. All dogs available for adoption are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, treated for parasites, and go home with a bag of food, a free wellness check at a local veterinary office, and more.
