Dogs looking for a home will be at Mivne Migdaley Tel Aviv on Friday, October 23, for an adoption event organized by Let the Animals Live. The event runs from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., and admission is free. Families considering adoption are asked to come with every member of the household.
The dogs were rescued from the streets and are currently being cared for in the organization’s kennels and shelters while they wait for adoptive families.
Support through the first year
The event is part of the “Adoption with Peace of Mind” campaign, a partnership with pet food and supplies company BioPet. The first 100 families to adopt through the campaign will receive a first-year support package valued at NIS 5,240. That limit applies to the campaign as a whole, not specifically to the Tel Aviv event.
- Vaccinations and preventive care.
- Up to four veterinary visits.
- Six bags of dog food.
- Four dog-training sessions in the family’s home.
- A refund of the adoption fee at the end of the first year.
Let the Animals Live says the initiative responds to a sharp drop in adoptions and an increase in the number of dogs returned to shelters during their first year with a family. Free admission to the event does not mean that adoption fees are waived on the day.
Yael Arkin, CEO of Let the Animals Live, said:
“Adoption events are a wonderful opportunity to come as a family, meet the dogs waiting for a home and give one of them a fresh start. At a time when we are seeing a decline in adoptions, every adoption is especially meaningful and saves two dogs: the dog you choose, and the dog you make room for at the shelter. I invite the public to come to the adoption days, get to know the dogs, fall in love and save lives.”
The organization marks 40 years of activity this year. It operates three clinics and a shelter for dogs and cats in Kfar Ruth, supported by a volunteer network across Israel. Animals receive medical treatment and rehabilitation according to their needs before being matched with adoptive families.
The Tel Aviv event follows adoption days held at Mivne shopping centers in Gan Shmuel on October 9 and Lehavim on October 16.
