Gwinnett County Animal Shelter is offering free adoptions to first responders and medical professionals for the month of May.
With proper ID, active duty military, veterans, fire and EMS personnel, police, doctors and nurses will not have to pay to take home a new furry friend. Adoption fees for all animals are reduced to $20 if a customer does not fall into one of those categories.

All animals are spayed or neutered before they go home with their new owner. They also receive a medical exam, vaccinations and a microchip.
The shelter currently has more than 100 animals in its care, with weeks-old puppies and kittens, senior dogs and cats and one beautiful rooster.
The shelter is open from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays and from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Thursday. It is located at 884 Winder Highway in Lawrenceville.
