SUMMARY:PAWS on the Patio
DESCRIPTION:Paws on the Patio Pet Adoption Event Brings Adoptable Dogs and Second Chances to Fairhope\nPaws on the Patio pet adoption event is coming to Fairhope this October, bringing together adoptable dogs, great food and a community that cares about homeless animals!\nThe Haven for Animals and Kingfisher Seafood Restaurant invite you to join us Saturday, Oct. 17, 2026, from 9:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. for a special morning on the patio at Kingfisher Seafood, 805 S. Mobile St. in Fairhope.\nThe Haven will bring adoptable dogs to the restaurant, giving visitors a chance to meet, interact with and get to know some incredible dogs outside the shelter environment. Whether you’re actively searching for a new companion or simply want to support homeless animals in our community, there will be plenty of reasons to stop by.\nAdoption Fees Waived at Paws on the Patio Pet Adoption Event\nHere’s one of the biggest reasons to join us: adoption fees for eligible dogs 6 months and older will be completely waived thanks to a grant from the ASPCA through its national Rescue Effect campaign.\nThe Rescue Effect brings shelters and rescues across the country together to increase pet adoptions and help more animals find loving homes. The ASPCA is providing $2 million in grants in 2026 to help participating organizations waive adoption fees and support shelter operations.\nRemoving the adoption fee doesn’t change The Haven’s commitment to making successful matches. Our standard adoption application and approval process remains in place to help connect each dog with the right family.\nAnd Kingfisher is making adoption day even sweeter: Each family adopting a dog during Paws on the Patio will receive a $25 Kingfisher Seafood gift card.\nMore Than a Dog Adoption Event\nThe Paws on the Patio pet adoption event is about more than finding homes for dogs. It’s also an opportunity for local families to learn about resources that help pets throughout our community.\nThere will be free goodies for kids, and The Haven team will have information about Project PAWS (Pet Alteration & Wellness Services), which helps provide pet owners with access to affordable spay and neuter resources.\nYou can also learn about Fix’n Ferals, The Haven’s trap-neuter-return program. TNR helps humanely reduce community cat populations by trapping community cats, having them spayed or neutered and returning them to their established outdoor homes.\nWant to learn more before the event? Visit our Project PAWS and Fix’n Ferals page — click here. ( https://www.havenforanimals.org/pet-help-resources/ )\nBring a Donation and Enjoy Free Dessert\nEven if you’re not ready to adopt, you can make a difference for animals in The Haven’s care.\nBring a bag of cat food, paper towels or Milk-Bone dog treats to donate during the event, and Kingfisher Seafood will treat you to a free dessert.\nEvery donated item helps support The Haven’s animals and community programs.\nKingfisher’s participation also has a personal connection. The restaurant is part of a family-owned restaurant group with Louisiana roots, and its CEO has a lifelong passion for dogs and adoption. Kingfisher describes its Fairhope restaurant as bringing Louisiana cuisine and Southern hospitality to the Alabama Gulf Coast.\nLearn more about our event partner at Kingfisher Seafood.\nJoin Us for Paws on the Patio Pet Adoption Event\nMark your calendar and bring the family!\nPaws on the PatioSaturday, Oct. 17, 20269:30 a.m.-1 p.m.Kingfisher Seafood Restaurant805 S. Mobile St., Fairhope, AL\nIf adoption has been on your mind, the Paws on the Patio pet adoption event could be the day you meet the dog who belongs in your family. You can also view The Haven’s adoptable pets – click here ( https://www.havenforanimals.org/available-pets/ ) – before coming to the event.\nThe ASPCA’s Rescue Effect reminds communities that one adoption has an impact beyond the animal going home: When a shelter pet is adopted, space and resources become available to help another animal in need.\nLearn more about the national campaign at ASPCA Rescue Effect.\nCome for the dogs, stay for the community spirit and good food — and maybe head home with a new best friend.\n
