Several hundred dogs and cats, including many that have spent their whole lives in a shelter, found their forever homes this weekend during a massive adoption event at Reliant Arena.

Thousands of dogs and cats from shelters across South Texas were available for adoption this weekend, according to Chelsea Staley, president of Petco Love, the retailer’s national nonprofit that partners with more than 4,000 shelters across the country for similar adoption events.
