That card can be used to buy things like food and supplies for the new pet.

The adoptions are also free and include spay/neuter services, vaccinations, microchips, and other service discounts.

DAS said it’s currently at 130% capacity for dogs.

The offer begins Friday and applies to dogs over 30 pounds and cats older than six months.
