Veterans & Valentines

Veterans & Valentines is an upcoming event celebrating the special connection between humans and their furry friends. Scheduled for February 9, 2026, at 4:00 PM, this event promises to be a heartwarming occasion dedicated to honoring active duty service members and veterans. Hosted by The Animal Foundation, Veterans & Valentines aims to strengthen the bond between people and pets by facilitating the adoption of animals, providing an opportunity for service members and veterans to welcome a new companion into their lives.

Attendees can look forward to a unique experience where adoption fees for all adult animals will be completely waived for those who serve or have served in the military, thanks to the generous support of the Penn Entertainment Foundation. This gesture not only alleviates financial concerns for potential pet owners but also encourages the creation of lasting bonds between veterans and animals in need of homes. Typically closed on Mondays, The Animal Foundation is making an exception to open its doors specifically for this event, ensuring that everyone has the chance to meet their potential new best friends in an accommodating and welcoming environment.
