Homeless Animals’ Lifeline Organization (HALO), Delta Animal Safe Haven (DASH) and Homeless Animals Response Program (HARP) are joining dozens of other animal-rescue organizations throughout the Bay Area for this year’s Maddie’s Matchmaker Adoptathon on June 9 and 10.

As part of this third annual event, HALO, DASH and HARP will be adopting cats and dogs to qualified pet owners, and in return, Maddie’s Fund, a nonprofit which seeks to create a no-kill nation in which all healthy and treatable shelter dogs and cats are guaranteed a loving home, will donate a minimum $500 per adoption to these local programs. Maddie’s Fund has pledged to donate $3 million to participating animal rescue programs in Contra Costa, Alameda and San Francisco counties.

HALO, DASH and HARP will host adoptions for cats only on June 9 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Pet Food Express, 5829 Lone Tree Way in Antioch; for dogs and cats on June 9 and 10 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the HALO House Pet Adoption Center, 215 Second St. in Oakley; and for dogs only on June 9 and 10 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at Petsmart, 5879 Lone Tree Way in Antioch.
