The Buchanan Business Boosters are excited to announce “The Dog Days of Summer,” a community-wide pet adoption event benefiting the Humane Society of Southwestern Michigan, taking place on Saturday, August 8, from 10:00 a.m. to noon at The Common, 121 S. Oak Street in downtown Buchanan.
Held in honor of Ned Gardner, this family-friendly event will bring together local businesses, animal welfare organizations, pet service providers, and community members for a morning dedicated to helping dogs find loving forever homes.
Visitors will have the opportunity to meet adoptable dogs, learn about the adoption process, and even prequalify for adoptions through the Humane Society of Southwestern Michigan via the QR code on the event poster. The event is designed to connect prospective pet owners with local shelter animals while celebrating the positive impact pets have on our lives and community.
“The Dog Days of Summer is a wonderful opportunity to support animal adoption while enjoying a fun community gathering in downtown Buchanan,” said a representative of the Buchanan Business Boosters. “We are proud to partner with the Humane Society of Southwestern Michigan and so many local organizations that are committed to helping animals find loving homes.”
Event Highlights Include:
Meet-and-greet opportunities with adoptable dogs
Therapy dog appearances
4-H pet demonstrations
On-site dog demonstrations by Echo Club
Nail trims and pet services from BluePaw Pet Spa
Gourmet dog treats and “Pup Cups”
Lawn games and activities for children

Farmers Market participation
Donation opportunities supporting the Humane Society of Southwestern Michigan
Several local businesses and organizations are supporting the event, including Good Boy Vodka, Tractor Supply Company, Chewy, Pet Supplies Plus, South Bend Animal Clinic, BluePaw Pet Spa, and others. Tractor Supply Company is also donating dog and cat food to support new adoptions.
Community members are encouraged to bring their pets to the event. For the safety of all attendees, pets must be on a non-retractable leash, and owners should be prepared to provide proof of current vaccinations if participating in adoption activities.
The Buchanan Business Boosters continue their mission of creating vibrant community experiences that support local organizations, encourage downtown engagement, and strengthen connections among residents and businesses.
