Green Acres hosts ‘Dog Days’ adoptions

Start the new year with a new best friend. Green Acres Nursery & Supply is hosting “Dog Days” adoptions on Saturday, Jan. 14, at its Elk Grove store. The event is free and open to the public.

“Rescue is our favorite breed. That’s why we’re connecting families with pets that need forever homes,” say the organizers. “Stop by, connect with local animal shelters, and adopt a loving friend.”

From 9 to 11 a.m. Saturday, meet dogs from local shelters in Sacramento County. Adopt a pet on event day and receive a $50 Green Acres gift card.

Green Acres is very pet-proactive (dogs can often be seen with their people, shopping at its Sacramento-area nurseries) and recently introduced a new line of pet supplies aimed at dog- or cat-loving gardeners.

Green Acres is located at 9220 E. Stockton Blvd., Elk Grove.
