LAKE COUNTY, FL (352today.com) – The Lake County Animal Shelter is celebrating our nation’s 250th birthday all month long by offering residents the opportunity to give furry friends a forever home at a truly patriotic price.

Throughout the month of July, they’re knocking the adoption fees for all shelter animals down to just $2.50. You can’t put a price on the benefits of the unconditional love you receive from a shelter animal, but you can help clear out a shelter full of almost 450 animals, help make room for more animals in need, and give yourself a buddy for next to nothing this month.

All adoptions include:

  • spay or neuter surgery
  • initial vaccinations
  • microchip
  • personalized ID tag

If you’re a Lake County resident looking to add to your family, drop by the shelter at 12280 CR 448 in Tavares and meet some new friends. If you can’t adopt right now, the shelter is also always looking for fosters and volunteers.
