If you’re in the market for a new home you might think of Coldwell Banker Heritage Homes, but if you’re in the market for a new four-legged companion… well, you can also think of Coldwell Banker Heritage Homes.

Tomorrow from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., Coldwell Banker Heritage Homes, the West Memphis Animal Shelter, the Marion Animal Shelter, MARS and PAWS rescue groups are joining hundreds of Coldwell Banker offices and animal shelters around the country for the Coldwell Banker “Homes for Dogs” National Adoption Day.

Locally, the fun will take place at 704 N. Missouri St., in West Memphis.

This nationwide event is part of the “Homes for Dogs” project, a four-year campaign launched by Coldwell Banker Real Estate, LLC and Adopt-APet. com, North America's largest non-profit pet adoption website.

The fun has already started with the Butts for Mutts promotion to sell grilled, smoked pork butts, so call any of these participants today to order yours!

They’re great for tailgating and football watch parties!

Extras will be available on site Saturday as well as a Pet Costume Contest at 11 a.m.

A cute fall background will be set and ready for your fall photos with your pets, BBQ nachos will be for sale, reduced cost for microchipping done Saturday will also be available as well as reduced costs for cat and dog adoptions.

“We worked together to help 23 cats and dogs find their new homes last year and hope to increase that number this year”, said Mike Ford, owner.

“We count ourselves lucky enough to help people find new homes in Crittenden County every day. Now, we get to extend that service to pets in need. It's a win-winwin,”, said Ford. “Come on out and visit the many cats and dogs available for adoption, it's a great time for young and old! And don't forget any donations you might have around the house like blankets, toys, collars, leashes, food — every little thing helps!

Nationally, Coldwell Banker has helped facilitate over 20,000 pet adoptions in the last three years. For more information, please call your local Coldwell Banker office at (870) 7324655.
