DAWG holds adoption shows from 12 to 2:30 PM each Saturday throughout the year except for the Fourth of July and Christmas Eve/Day. Please refer to the schedule below to confirm shows location and times. At least 15 dogs of all ages and sizes are presented at each adoption show.  Consider our shows an opportunity for your entire family -- including your dog -- to meet and spend time with our dogs. Your dog's "opinion" is important! If your dog is shy, we will meet with you in an aisle or outside the store. If you are interested in a specific dog, please apply in advance of an adoption show and allow at least 24 hours for DAWG to review your application: Adoption Application.   Why apply beforehand? Preliminarily approved applications are prioritized when scheduling dogs for the upcoming show. Please note that applications are not binding, and that applications are NOT considered on a first come, first served basis, but on the best match between dog and applicant. To learn which dogs in general will be at an upcoming show, please email DAWG: dawg@dawg-rescue.org as of Friday afternoon before a show UNTIL 10 AM ON SATURDAY (two hours before the show commences). No emails will be answered from 10 AM until after the show. PLEASE DO NOT CALL THE STORE FOR SHOW INFORMATION! Store personnel do not know which dogs will be attending a show. It is not the store's responsibility to search for a DAWG volunteer during an adoption show to answer a caller's questions. Thank you!
