Throughout the week, educational institutions, animal shelters, rescue groups, and humane organizations across the state will be hosting scores of wonderful animal-related special events. Educators, students, businesses and caring citizens across Tennessee will be joining in, creating and planning their exciting activities to celebrate and help animals.
Events will include adoption fairs, spay/neuter awareness events, shelter beautification days, R.E.A.D. dog programs in libraries, walks for the farm animals, motorcycle rides for homeless animals along with therapy dogs visiting hospitals and nursing homes.
Also to be included are a salute to our canine military and police dogs, feral cat activities, animal law events, educational programs at sanctuaries, blessings for the animals, and full-filled festival days for families to come and enjoy food, music and the always mystical animals!
Please become involved! Events are being planned now, and we need animal lovers everywhere in Tennessee to be planning so we can all collectively participate! See the page "Become Involved" on this website for lots of great ideas and suggestions on what you can do.
