La Plata County Humane Society will hold its 11th annual adopt-a-thon today and Saturday.
In 2012, 55 dogs and cats found new homes, Jonell Jones, Humane Society marketing coordinator said in a statement. The 55 pets set a record for the adopt-a-thon. The previous record was 38.
Adoptions will take place at the Humane Society office, 1111 South Camino del Rio, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., both days.
The thrift shop will have extended hours, as well, and a concessions stand will be available.
Adult dogs have an adoption fee of $50 and adult cats, $10.
Visitors can participate in new games, including Dog Poo Bingo and The Lucky Retriever. Winners will be awarded gift baskets. Anyone who wants to participate can call 259-2847 for information.
