Adoptable pets stole the show Saturday, October 29, at Bob Rohrman Subaru in Lafayette during an adoption event coordinated by the dealership, Purdue Veterinary Medicine\u2019s Priority 4 Paws program and two area animal shelters.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Some four-footed visitors to the showroom at Bob Rohrman Subaru in Lafayette attracted attention during a special pet adoption event Saturday, October 29, that involved a collaboration between the dealership, Purdue Veterinary Medicine\u2019s Priority 4 Paws program and two local animal shelters.  The focus on finding homes for pets up for adoption was part of Subaru Loves Pets Month. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As customers strolled into the dealership at 1600 S. Creasy Lane between 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m., they had the opportunity to meet a collection of cats and dogs looking for a place to call home.  The pets were brought to the dealership by the Almost Home Humane Society in Lafayette and the Clinton County Humane Society in Frankfort.  Adults and children alike enjoyed greeting the furry friends and several of the animals were adopted. Andrew Lane, Love Promise Program Manager at Bob Rohrman Subaru, said the event was a huge success, positively impacting the lives of nine pets. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both of the animal shelters have a partnership with Purdue through the Priority 4 Paws shelter medicine program that provides high quality medical and surgical care for shelter animals while educating the next generation of veterinarians.  Drs. Emily Curry and Ryan Hill, clinical assistant professors of shelter medicine and mobile surgery, were on hand at the event to represent Priority 4 Paws and the Purdue University Veterinary Hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The adoption event was planned in conjunction with Subaru\u2019s fourth annual National Make A Dog’s Day, a day created by Subaru to invite all dog lovers to do something special for their furry family members.  Through the car company\u2019s Love Promise and Subaru Loves Pets™ initiative, Subaru retailers host adoption events across the country to help local shelter pets find loving homes. Subaru and its retailers have donated over $42 million to national and local organizations, which has helped in the adoption, rescue, transport, and health care of nearly 350,000 animals and pets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
