Celebrate Elvis Presley’s birthday and adopt a hound dog!
During the month of January, Elvis Presley fans across the nation will commemorate the birthday of the King of Rock and Roll. Lee County Domestic Animal Services will celebrate by offering a $50 discount off the adoption fee of all hound dogs and hound mixes. The adoption package which is valued at $500 includes sterilization, vaccinations, and other veterinary services.
If it’s variety you are looking for, a hound dog could be your best bet. The hound breeds encompass everything from Beagles, Basset Hounds, Greyhounds, Bloodhounds, Coonhounds, Foxhounds, and Dachshunds to Afghans, Basenjis, Borzois, and Elkhounds plus many more. And don’t forget about all of the adorable hound mixes you will find at the shelter offering endless possibilities!
Hounds come in all sizes and shapes. Whether it’s a low-riding breed such as the Dachshund or the Irish Wolfhound, considered to be the tallest breed in the world, you can find a dog that is just the right size for your lifestyle.
Hounds have cornered the market on personality too! Among the hounds you will find dogs that are clever, lively, and loyal making them very popular family pets. They are an excellent choice for children and bond with the whole family including other pets.
So come to the shelter during January and get a great deal on your new best friend. Alfie, Honey, Speck, Belle, Dino, Dudley, Hershey, Sammy, Lilly, Rusty, and of course, Elvis, are only a few of the great hounds waiting to go home with you!
