About this Event

On April 30, join us for the third annual Blue Buffalo "Make a Best Friends Match" adoption event at the Best Friends Pet Resource Center. For the third year in a row, this special event – appropriately held on National Adopt a Shelter Pet Day – promises to be loads of fun for people, as well as for adoptable pets eagerly awaiting loving homes.

At this free event, Blue Buffalo and Best Friends are teaming up to provide a good time for the community and shine a light on the importance of adopting pets from local shelters and rescue organizations. According to Best Friends’ data, if just 6% more people chose to adopt rather than purchase their next pet, we could end the killing of dogs and cats in America’s shelters.

Attendees will enjoy drinks and appetizers, music from DJ Brock Short, personalized caricatures of pets and people, pet tag making, adoption kit stuffing stations, a dog treat bar, swag bags, and more. Plus, there will be tons of opportunities to meet adorable, adoptable dogs and cats – and maybe even bring home a new best friend. Adoption fees are covered by Blue Buffalo and Walmart.

But the fun won’t stop when the party shuts down – this event will kick off National Pet Month festivities taking place at Walmart nationwide in May. Purchases of select Blue Buffalo products at Walmart will trigger a donation to go towards helping pets find new, loving homes. This donation will help cover adoption fees at all Best Friends Animal Society locations, including the Pet Resource Center right here in Northwest Arkansas.

The Best Friends Pet Resource Center is located at 1312 Melissa Drive, Bentonville, AR.
