They travelled a long way and hopefully this weekend 150 dogs from Louisiana will be able to find a forever home.
PetSmart Stoney Creek along with the Welland SPCA, Fort Erie SPCA, Georgian Triangle Humane Society are looking to add a rescue dog to families in the area.
PetSmart Charities of Canada has provided a grant of $12,500 to the animal welfare organizations to help find homes for these dogs, many of whom were rescued from an over-capacity shelter in Louisiana.
Potential pet parents are invited to the adoption event starting tomorrow through to Sunday at the Stoney Creek Pet Smart on Stone Church Road East.
