What are the PetSmart Charities Adoption Centers?
When PetSmart was founded, the company made a commitment not to sell dogs or cats in its stores. Instead, the company decided to focus on finding homeless pets new homes. Today, adoptions are facilitated through PetSmart Charities Adoption Centers inside each of the 1,145 PetSmart stores across the United States and Canada. Local animal welfare agencies bring pets to these Adoption Centers to match them with potential pet parents. This in-store space is provided at no cost to the animal welfare organizations.
