Clear the Shelters

August 23 to September 19, 2021

The Humane Society of Vero Beach & Indian River County (HSVB) has joined NBCUniversal Local’s Clear the Shelters™ 2021 pet adoption campaign.

The Humane Society of Vero Beach & Indian River County will be promoting pet adoptions with discounted adoption fees and other promotions from Aug. 23 to Sept. 19, 2021.

Promotions and specials will be advertised through our social media channels, email newsletters, and our website, hsvb.org.

This year’s Clear the Shelters will again feature online donations through fundraising partner Greater Good Charities.

Those interested in donating to HSVB can visit ClearTheSheltersFund.org. Hill's Pet Nutrition is the national sponsor for its fourth Clear the Shelters campaign this year.

Local fundraising totals and the number of pets adopted from area shelters via virtual and in-person adoptions will be announced by the stations after the conclusion of Clear the Shelters.

1: Rolling

When one dog makes physical contact with another and knocks into him, causing him to tumble, somersault or roll over.

2: Tucked Tail

3: Pinning

4: Hiding or Hovering

When the dog spends more than 5 seconds underneath something or hovering near a human. Dog’s tail will be low or tucked.
