Episode Details

Get ready to adopt a hero—July 31st is National Mutt Day, and El Paso Animal Services is teaming up with the BISSELL Pet Foundation to waive all adoption fees for mixed-breed dogs. This isn’t just a free pet deal; it’s part of a nationwide “Empty the Shelters” campaign that’s helped over 300,000 animals find homes since 2016. Mixed-breed dogs are often overlooked, but shelters want you to look past the breed and focus on personality, energy, and fit. Plus, science says mixed breeds often have a wider gene pool, making them less prone to genetic health issues common in purebreds. It’s a win-win: you get a healthier, lovable companion, and shelters get a little less crowded. If you’re thinking about adding a furry friend, this weekend is your cue to visit your local shelter.
