MILWAUKEE (WITI) -- The Wisconsin Humane Society is offering adoption discounts to veterans and members of the armed forces this Veterans Day weekend. “Operation Troops & Tails” allows servicemen and women, past and present, to adopt a companion animal for just $25 beginning on Friday, November 8th through Monday, November 11th.
This program was inspired by local philanthropist Stan Kass, who has made several generous contributions to the organization over the past years and is providing the financial support to make Operation Troops & Tails possible.
The promotion applies to all adult dogs, puppies, and kittens at the shelter’s Milwaukee, Racine and Saukville locations. As always, adopters name their own fee for adult cats. All animals currently available for adoption can be viewed at www.wihumane.org.
All adopters must have photo identification and proof of address. Additionally, troops and veterans must show valid military I.D. or proof of military service bearing their name in order to receive the discount.
