The 14th annual Jenny's Hope Super Pet Adoption took place this past Saturday at Columbia Park in Kennewick, and it was an AMAZING success. Since moving to Tri-Cities in 2014, I've had the opportunity to be present at most of the occasions. It's really a heartwarming event. This year was incredible!

Pet Overpopulation Prevention Was Present Providing Microchipping for Pets.

As anyone knows, keeping our pets safe the number one priority. POPP stepped up to the plate and offered $20 microchipping for any pet at the adoption event. A microchip provides permanent identification for a pet linking them their owner if the pet is lost or stolen. Vets can easily scan the RFID tag.
