2nd Annual Running to the Rescue 5K...

• 5K Run:- Run 3.1 Miles

Adoption First is a local animal rescue group that specializes in pulling animals from local shelters that are set to be euthanized and providing them loving and fun homes while we search for their forever homes. Unfortunately, there are dogs being euthanized at local shelters simply because we do not have enough fosters right now. We are running to bring awareness to Animal First Animal Rescue and get somes dogs adopted. We are also working to raise funds for vetrinary care. Also rescued dogs must be fully vetted, vaccinated, and spayed/neutered prior to adoption. In addition, the rescue faces a host of other medical issues that must be resolved so that dogs are healthy when adopted. We have 15-20 heartworm positive dogs each year in addition to a multitude of vet visits for parasites, mange, worms, etc. If you are interested in applying to foster, donating funds, or have more questions about fostering or other ways to help (there are lots!) -please visit our website at www.adoption-first.org
