Empty the Shelters is Back This September
BISSELL Pet Foundation's Empty the Shelters event is back starting this Friday.
September 18 through September 30, the foundation is partnering with 269 shelters nationwide to bring adoption fees down to just $70 or less. Since 2016, more than 431,000 pets have found homes through this incredible program. Pets go home already spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.
