 The CHA animal shelter needs your help - and can teach your kids to be safe around dogs! See CHA at the PetExpo this weekend at Vet's. |
At The Basement Doctor we're big supporters of animals needing homes - and work closely with the Citizens for Humane Action (CHA) animal shelter. They are great people and do a lot to help the homeless animals in our community.
This weekend in Columbus, CHA animal shelter is participating in the 15th PetExpo at Veterans Memorial Civic Center. Stop by their table, pick up a goodie bag and learn about some great animals who desperately need a new loving home. I've visited many of their adoptable pets and have really been impressed with how friendly and loving they are.
If you're seeking a new addition to your family and are ready to make a lifelong commitment, I urge you to visit CHA at the PetExpo or visit them online at CHA's website.
CHA is seeking donations to care for the animals, and is hosting a FREE class at the Home Improvement Center to educate children how to be safe around dogs. Read on for more info!
