Forget Netflix and your Saturday brunch: on May 24th, you need to be at the SPA shelters. Not for a depressing shoot featuring "sad dogs behind bars," but for a true encounter, one that makes hearts race and tails wag. The shelters in Brignais (Rhône) and Dompierre-sur-Veyle (Ain) are hosting open days and are pulling out all the stops to attract everyone dreaming of a four-legged companion or simply wanting to discover the behind-the-scenes of these places where care, rescue, and pampering go on all year round.
A day of fun activities... punctuated by a love at first sight?
On the agenda: free visits, teams ready to help you make thoughtful adoption choices, and a bunch of activities proving that commitment can be fun. In Dompierre, there will be a parade of adoptable dogs, nature walks, photo sessions (yes, you can pose with your furry friend), and demonstrations of search dogs.
he, dedicated to animal welfare and even a flea market to uncover the vintage bowl of your dreams. Over in Brignais, there's a mini-pedagogical farm, dog dancing (yes, you read that right), nature workshops, a fun fair, and a raffle. Perfect for making both little ones and grown-ups purr with joy.The goal is clear: to place every animal in a loving and lasting home, without pressure but with conviction. And even if you leave without a furry friend that day, you can sponsor, make a donation, or just enjoy some cuddles. Because a hug isn’t bought, it’s given from the heart.
