MEMPHIS, Tenn. — The Humane Society of Memphis & Shelby County wants their adoptable animals feeling lucky this St. Patrick's Day, celebrating the day by offering low-cost adoption specials.
The "It's Your Lucky Day" event runs Thursday, March 17, from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. at the Humane Society.
The society said it will be a great opportunity to adopt, as they are offering $17 adoption fees for dogs and cats over three years old, as well as a $17 discount on pets under three.
In order to be pre-approved, an adoption application must be filled out here.
Currently, the Memphis Humane Society has 56 dogs and 19 cats ready for adoption, according to their website.

- For renters, a lease outlining pet polices.
- Up to date vet records for all current pets
- The entire family will need to be present (including current dogs if you are planning to adopt another dog)
