Veteran’s Pet Adoption Program
Nelson SPCA has partnered with Coming Home Well and Gratitude Charlottesville for the Veterans Pet Adoption Program. Our goal is to bring together military veterans and police seeking companion animals with pets from our shelter in need of a home. To show our support and to positively impact our military veteran and police community, our shelter is waiving pet adoption fees for veterans and police.
Gratitude Charlottesville provides a directory of local businesses that offer discounts to police and active and retired military personnel. Check our PDF on pet-friendly business partners.
