Petsmart Adoption Event
Come meet some of our AMAZING dogs IN ACTION! We will have some of our adoptable dogs dogs to see and meet! Be ready for some kisses, and LOTS of CUTENESS!
The adoption matchmaking process is a collaborative effort among the adopter and SOS volunteers. Many individuals may be involved in the process, including you and your entire household (including your current pets!), your adoption counselor, the foster home, and an SOS trainer. We have many years and thousands of matches of experience, and are committed to using our knowledge to create successful outcomes.
Want to get the process started? Don’t wait until the event to submit your SOS application at sosarl.org/adopt.
Please note that pre-screened status does not guarantee adoption of any particular dog, nor availability of any particular dog. We aim to develop a trust-based relationship with each adoptive family that we chose to work with and we openly discuss match risk factors throughout the process as we have everyone’s best interests at heart.
Warwick Weekend Monday:
Girl Scouts Open House: Make New Friends
Join Girl Scouts every Monday as we make new friends and keep the old! In a 3-part series, girls and gender-expansive youth in Kindergarten and up will come together to participate in mock troop meetings and learn all about what it means to be a Girl Scout through fun activities. While prospective Girl Scouts are having fun, adults will have the opportunity to learn about starting a troop or joining an existing one.
Meetings will take place at 6 p.m. March 20
Note: You do NOT need to be a current member of Girl Scouts to attend and you don’t need to attend all sessions. Join at any time!
