Bring love home at the Best Friends Super Adoption

Join us June 15 and 16 at the Best Friends Pet Resource Center and meet hundreds of adoptable dogs and cats!

It’s your chance to make a lifesaving difference for animals right here in Northwest Arkansas. All adoption fees are covered!

With an estimate 450 adoptable dogs and cats from 30 regional shelters and rescues, Super Adoption is more than an adoption event — it's a festival of love and lifesaving! We'll have food trucks, vendor booths, giveaways, an "ask a trainer" booth with the NWA School for Dogs, demonstrations, and of course, hundreds of adorable adoptable pets for you to meet.

BREAKING NEWS

A BIG THANK YOU to the The Leonard and Robert Weintraub Family Foundation, which has offered to cover half of all adoption fees, and Best Friends will match them dollar for dollar. So fees are covered for all animals from all participating shelters and rescues, all weekend long!

So bring the family and stop by for an hour, or stay all day — because there's something for everyone to enjoy. Let us know you're coming and you'll gain early entry to the event at 10 a.m., giving you a whole hour to preview the adoptable pets ahead of the crowds!

The Best Friends Pet Resource Center is located at 1312 Melissa Drive in Bentonville, Arkansas. We're so excited to welcome you!
