Pet Adoption Events Near You
Meeting a rescue dog in person is often the fastest way to find the right match. Dogs 2nd Chance hosts and attends pet adoption events throughout the Memphis and Mid-South area nearly every week, from meet-and-greets at local pet stores to microchip clinics and community festivals.
What to Expect
At a typical adoption event you’ll find several of our rescue dogs, along with volunteers who can answer questions about temperament, size, and history. Bring the whole family — including your current dog, if you have one and the event allows it — to see how everyone gets along.
Browse our full, up-to-date schedule on the Adoption Events page, or check our microchip clinic schedule if you just need to get a pet chipped.
