Did you know? Petting and playing with dogs can help reduce stress and, of course, boost your mood! We invite you to take a moment to paws and relax with some adorable dogs from Priceless Pets, a no-kill rescue in Claremont.
Priceless Pets will bring the dogs they currently have available for adoption to enjoy a day out, socialize and perhaps meet their next forever family. Take a break, come out to enjoy the sunshine and scratch a few furry ears! Please know, there is no commitment to adopt.
Tuesday, December 12 | 11 a.m. - 1 p.m. | South Lawn
