Rescued dogs will be at Petco in Burbank, ready to meet potential adopters and find new homes. No appointment is required, though you can arrange one in advance to meet a specific pup and have that dog reserved for an in-person introduction during the event. Each adoption includes health records, and every dog has already received veterinary care that covers vaccinations, deworming, flea and tick prevention, microchipping, and spay or neuter surgery. Fees vary by dog and start at $250, with a portion eligible for a tax deduction that helps fund care for more than 500 dogs. For assistance or questions, call or text 888 508 8943 any day between 8 am and 8 pm.
