According to WTVM, Paws Humane Society is holding a community‑focused dog adoption event called From Foster to Forever on Saturday, November 7. The gathering will run from 12:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the shelter located at 4900 Milgen Road, providing Columbus residents an opportunity to connect with dogs currently living in foster homes.

The event’s purpose is to bring together adoptable dogs and the foster families who are caring for them. Attendees will be able to meet each dog and hear directly from the foster caregivers about the animals’ personalities, house manners, favorite activities, and energy levels. This firsthand information helps prospective adopters make informed decisions about which dog best fits their household.

Adoption incentives are built into the day’s schedule. The first five dogs adopted from foster homes during the event will receive an adoption goodie bag, and additional prizes and giveaways will be offered throughout the afternoon, according to the shelter’s announcement. These incentives aim to encourage swift placements and celebrate new lifelong partnerships.

Donations to support the shelter’s ongoing work can be made online, with a link provided by the organization. While the event itself is free to attend, contributions help sustain foster programs, veterinary care, and future adoption initiatives, reinforcing the community’s role in caring for vulnerable animals.

What’s next: Columbus residents interested in adopting or supporting the cause are encouraged to arrive early on November 7 to meet the dogs and their foster families. Those unable to attend can still contribute by donating through the online portal listed on the shelter’s website. The event promises to strengthen local animal‑welfare efforts and provide loving homes for dogs in need.
