Throughout the week, shelters, rescue groups, and humane organizations across the state will be hosting other wonderful animal-related special events. Educators, students, businesses and caring citizens across Arizona will be joining in as well, each planning their own activities to celebrate and help animals.
Events will include adoption fairs, spay-neuter awareness events, shelter days, R.E.A.D. dog programs in libraries, donation drives, walks for the farm animals and therapy dogs visiting hospitals /nursing homes.
Also to be included are a salute to our canine military and police dogs, feral cat initiatives, animal law events, special programs at the zoos, blessings for the animals, and full-filled festival days for families to come and enjoy food, music and the amazing animals!
