Garden City Pets Up For Adoption: Meet Chloe, Saint, Milly & More

Looking to add to your family and give back to the Garden City community at the same time? Adopt a dog, cat or other kind of pet from a local shelter or organization! Despite the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, shelters in and around Garden City have dogs, cats and other animals ready and waiting for someone to take them home.

For those looking to adopt, a great place to start the search for an adorable new fur child is at Barrk Animal Rescue, where Milly the dog is waiting patiently, or another local facility. If you aren't sure if you have time to take care of a pet year round, many shelters also offer opportunities to foster pets until they are placed.

If you need some help in your search, Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We put together a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. If you're a dog person, meet Chloe, a Chow Chow mix up for adoption. If cats are more your thing, there are several great cats available, too. Click on any listing for more information, or to start the adoption process.
