Mutt Market scheduled for March 23

Posted

The Jacksonville Humane Society (JHS) invites pet owners and pet lovers alike to mingle, shop and play at the organization’s fourth annual Mutt Market on March 23.

JHS welcomes attendees to enjoy amenities for both ends of the leash at Mutt Market, including a local vendor market, food trucks, a $10 pet supply fill-a-bag, a free pet photography booth and more. Attendees will also have the chance to bid on dozens of unique items in the Mutt Market silent auction and enter a raffle for the chance to win a JHS swag basket. There will also be a “fill-a-truck” donation drive on site during the event, and for a donation of pet food attendees will receive one free raffle ticket.

All adoptions at JHS will be half-priced as part of PetSmart Charities’ National Adoption Weekend for anyone interested in bringing home a new furry family member.

Attendees are welcome to bring their pet to the event. All animals must remain on their leashes while on site.

“Mutt Market provides us with the opportunity to celebrate our love of pets with our community,” JHS CEO Denise Deisler said. “It will be a day of shopping, fun and adventure for everyone, while also raising awareness for the JHS mission and finding new, loving homes for pets in our care.”

The Mutt Market will be held at 8464 Beach Blvd. from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. March 23. Registration for the event is optional and there is no cost to attend, but donations to support the homeless dogs and cats in our community are appreciated.
