The Montgomery County Animal Services and Adoption Center (MCASAC) will host a dog adoption special with $16 adoption fees on Saturday, March 28. The shelter is currently full, with many dogs in need of new homes. With reduced adoption fees, it is an ideal time for residents to consider adopting. 

MCASAC is located at 7315 Muncaster Mill Road in Derwood, and the event is from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Adopters are encouraged to arrive at least one hour before closing.

Residents can view adoptable animals by visiting the shelter’s website or by coming to the facility during open hours. 

Adoptions are processed on a first-come, first-served basis and are completed the same day. Residents should be prepared to take an animal home at the time of adoption by bringing a leash and collar for dogs or a pet carrier for cats and other small animals.
