Looking for a fur-ever kind of love this Valentine’s Day? There are plenty of shelter dogs looking for the perfect companion.
Tulsa’s Animal Welfare is hosting a “Sweetheart Special” February 12-14, with reduced adoption fees on dogs to drive community support and promote shelter adoptions.
Adoption fees on all dogs are $40 during the event.
