Austin Animal Center takes part in nationwide adoption event
Friday, March 17, 2017 by Nina Hernandez
This week, the Austin Animal Center announced it would be taking part in the North Shore Animal League America’s nationwide adoption event, Tour for Life 2017. The effort, which is sponsored by Purina and visits Austin at noon on March 18, is being billed as the “largest cooperative life-saving” event of its kind. The Austin stop is Birds Barbershop on South Congress, but we’re just one of 54 cities the mobile adoption center is hitting on its 20,000-mile road trip, offering free adoptions to raise awareness about its no-kill mission.
