San Antonio’s Animal Care Services (ACS) is celebrating Black “Furday” this week.

ACS is cutting adoption fees for all pets in its shelters to $25 on the day after Thanksgiving.

The event will include a dozen get-acquainted yards for prospective pet parents to meet their potential future pets.

All Black “Furday” adopters will also receive a free gift along with their discounted adoption fee while supplies last.

ACS will be open from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. at its main location off of Highway 151.

Adopters can check out pets ahead of time with the "Pet Search" feature at the ACS web site.

TPR was founded by and is supported by our community. If you value our commitment to the highest standards of responsible journalism and are able to do so, please consider making your gift of support today.
