From Dallas Pets Alive: Dallas Pets Alive! Rallies Community for Pet Fostering Opportunities

April 07, 2025


[DALLAS, TX] — Dallas Pets Alive (DPA) hosts its first ever Foster Fest on Saturday, April 12th
at the DPA Adoption Container.
North Texas animal shelters are severely overcrowded and overflowing, some reporting that
they are consistently 100% over capacity. Hundreds of local pets are in urgent need of homes,
safety, and love.
Foster Fest aims to connect these vulnerable pets with people who are looking to care for them
temporarily until they find their forever home. Attendees will be able to meet animals from local
shelters on-site and can foster immediately. In addition to saving a life, fosters will benefit from
DPA’s support during their fostering journey: DPA covers all medical and supplies needed and
four weeks of in-person or virtual training.
Fostering is incredibly critical now as shelters are overflowing. Attendees who sign up to foster
will receive:
● 1x Community Beer Company Beer Token
● Small DPA swag (DPA sticker, coozie, button, Quakecon shirt)
● Cat/Dog Toy & Treats
Attendees who leave with a new foster animal will receive:
● 1x Community Beer Company Beer Token
● $25 virtual amazon gift card to help with supplies
● DPA and CBC swag (DPA t-shirt of choice, sticker, coozie, CBC Taproom discount
coupon)
● All supplies for new foster pet
DPA’s on-site volunteers will be available to answer any questions and discuss the current state
of animal welfare, providing valuable insights and guidance to those interested in making a
difference in the lives of animals in need.

When:
Saturday, April 12th from 1-5pm
Where:
DPA's Adoption Container located at Community Beer Co.
