The Pima Animal Care Center is offering free pet adoptions every Friday throughout June as the shelter grapples with being at full capacity.

She said that just weeks before one of their busiest times of the year, PACC is beyond critical capacity, meaning the shelter has more animals than available bed space. Murdock explained that summertime often presents more challenges as adoptions typically slow down while animals coming into the shelter increase. Following the Fourth of July holiday, upwards of 300 dogs often find their way to the shelter, many of them are strays that have run away.

Murdock recommends you leave your pets at home if you are going to any fireworks shows this year. She also advises pet owners to have a way to identify their pets should they get lost—whether with a collar or microchip.
