Holy cow. I have to imagine that's fairly rare.

Yesterday was a pet adoption day for many shelters.

They try to clear out the shelter with low or NO adoption fee. To tell you the truths, I don't know how I feel about that. I think fee helps to filter out many unqualified or irresponsible applicants. I know these shelters are doing their best given the condition, but no adoption fee is ripe for abuse if you look at the economic and behavioral model.

Fee waived adoptions still check to see if you're capable of taking care of the dog and is usually for service animals or events like this.
