If you’re wanting to add a four-legged ball of love and affection to your life, look no further than these animal shelters in and around Concord for a pet to adopt.
About 6.5 million companion animals are surrendered or taken in each year by adoption facilities nationwide, according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. However, only around half of all shelter pets are adopted each year, ASPCA data shows.
Were you looking to adopt your new four-legged companion? A great place to start your search is at Pope Memorial Spca Of Concord Merrimack County. If you aren’t sure if you have time to take care of a pet year-round, many shelters also offer opportunities to foster pets until they are placed in permanent homes.
