The Pet Revolution - 24 hour pet adoption and fur friendly Run Fur Their Lives 5k fun run to benefit homeless pets

An estimated 15,000 animals are taken in every year by the gwinnett county animal welfare enforcement, due to numerous readons, and only about a third of those animals will make it out of the shelter with rescues or adoptions.  That is why the gwinnett county animal shelter is hosting a huge community event called The Pet Revolution, 24 hours of adoptions, vendors, spay/neuter/vaccine clinics, and a fur friendly 5k which benefits these homeless pets. It will be a huge event that will place a lot of homeless, helpless animals in homes that love them and will make room in the shelter for animals that need refuge. It starts on October 11 at 7:00p and runs through October 12 at 7:00p, with the Gwinnett Fur Run on the 12 at 8:00a.
