TIMONIUM, MD—Adopt your new best friend just in time for summer adventures.

On Saturday, June 15, 2024 BARCS will be joined by the Maryland SPCA, the Baltimore Humane Society, and Baltimore County Animal Services for an extra special mega-adoption event at the Timonium Fairgrounds.

This adoption event, sponsored by Petco Love, is the largest in the Baltimore area and surrounding counties.

The Mega Summer Adopt-a-thon will be held at the Timonium Fairgrounds in the 4H Building from 10 a.m. – 3 p.m. Adoption fees will be waived for all animals at the event. Dogs, cats, puppies, kittens and small companion animals will all be available for adoption.

Families are able to bring home their new furry friends the day of the event if the animal is already altered. All adoptions are on a first come, first served basis and adoption fees have been waived for all pets at the event. Standard adoption procedures still apply.

Adoption Information:

• Adopters need to bring a valid photo ID and proof of current address. Adopters must be at least 18 years of age.
• Adopters may NOT bring their current pets to the event. Adoption counselors from each shelter will be giving all adopters very thorough instructions about acclimating new pets to homes with existing pets.
• Cat carriers, leashes and collars will be available for additional purchase at the event.
