FIDO Friendly's 8th annual month long pet adoption tour: Get Your Licks on Route 66® starts September 9, 2016 in Riverside, California.
It’s that time of year again where FIDO Friendly travels down the Mother Road, stopping at shelters along the way to support adoption events.
The cross-country pet adoption tour officially starts September 9 in Riverside, California at the Riverside Animal Services and kicks off September 10th in Los Angeles at the LA Animal Services.
Emmy Award Winning TV host of the weekly CBS series Lucky Dog, Brandon McMillan, is our spokesperson for the second year and he will be at the kick-off to meet attendees.
In the first seven years, we have helped place over 5,000 pets in to new forever homes! We bring our giant spinning wheel filled with prizes provided by our sponsors where a donation gives you a chance to win fabulous prizes and all proceeds go to the shelter at the end of the day.
SprinterRentals is once again providing us with a Sprinter to travel down America's Favorite Highway and Animal Radio is our media sponsor for the eighth year!
Thanks to our sponsors who have signed up thus far to help us save lives, one shelter at a time! Please visit their websites to see the great products they have to offer.
