AURORA, Colo. — The Aurora Animal Shelter cannot accept dogs until further notice.
The shelter said Tuesday that it is at full capacity after experiencing an "unprecedented high number of owner-surrendered dogs."
To help reduce the number of animals at the shelter, all dogs and cats over six months old are 50 percent off their regular adoption fees through the end of August, the shelter said.
Aurora residents who become adopters will also receive a free pet license with their adoption.
The Aurora Animal Shelter also said it can use foster families to provide in-home care for dogs, cats, puppies and kittens.
If you cannot adopt and would like to support the animals, the shelter has an Amazon Wish List linked at AuroraAnimalShelter.org by clicking the Donate button.
