SUMMARY:"Show Us Your Pitties" Northside Walking Tour 2026
DESCRIPTION:Join Cincinnati Animal CARE for the FIRST EVER Northside Pittie Tour on Sunday\, May 17 at 3:00 PM!\n\nThis one-of-a-kind neighborhood walking tour\, the Pittie Tour celebrates pitties\, pittie-type dogs\, and the community that loves them. Starting at Cincinnati Animal CARE’s Dane Avenue location\, participants will check in\, grab a tour map\, and set out to explore Northside on foot—stopping along the way at curated homes and neighborhood spots featuring friendly\, leashed dogs and their owners.\n\nFrom front porches and yards to sidewalks and parks\, you’ll experience Northside in a whole new way while meeting incredible dogs who are ready to show off just how loving and social pitties can be. All participating dogs will be leashed\, supervised by their owners\, and all interactions will take place outdoors.\n\nThe Pittie Tour will conclude at Northside Yacht Club\, where participants can gather\, share stories\, and enjoy food\, drinks\, and community.\n\nThe Pittie Tour builds on the success of Cincinnati Animal CARE’s previous neighborhood walking events and continues a mission of creating positive\, real-world interactions that help challenge misconceptions about pitties while celebrating the dogs already loved in our community.\n\nFree to attend\, family-friendly\, and open to all dog lovers!\n\n\nWhy This Event Matters\nThis event was created to celebrate a group of dogs that are too often misunderstood. Pitties and pittie–type dogs consistently make up a significant portion of shelter populations nationwide\, including at Cincinnati Animal CARE. Despite their reputation\, these dogs are known for their affectionate\, people-oriented nature and thrive when given structure\, stability\, and a loving home. \nAt Cincinnati Animal CARE\, every animal is treated as an individual\, not defined by breed or stereotype. Through events like The Pittie Tour\, the organization aims to create positive\, real-life interactions that challenge misconceptions and highlight what these dogs are truly like: loyal companions who simply need the right environment to succeed. As part of that commitment to responsible pet ownership and community wellbeing\, all participating dogs in this event are required to be spayed or neutered. \nSupporting a Lifesaving Mission\nWhile the event is free to attend\, merchandise purchases and community participation help support Cincinnati Animal CARE’s mission to provide lifesaving care to thousands of animals each year. \nParticipants can register for the free walking tour at cincycare.org or through Cincinnati Animal CARE’s Facebook page. Event merchandise will also be available for purchase\, with proceeds directly supporting the animals in care. Northside residents interested in participating as a tour stop are encouraged to register their home and dog in advance.

SUMMARY:Clear the Kennels: $10 Adoption Fees April 10-12!
DESCRIPTION:🐾 Clear the Kennels Adoption Event\nBe the reason a kennel opens. Be the reason a life is saved. \nRight now\, Cincinnati Animal CARE is experiencing a surge in animals coming through our doors—from strays to urgent cases that cannot wait. As Hamilton County’s only open-intake shelter\, we never turn animals away. But when our kennels fill up\, it becomes harder to say “yes” to the next animal in need. \nThat’s where you come in. \n💛 April 10–12 | Clear the Kennels Weekend\nThis special adoption event is your chance to make an immediate\, lifesaving impact—while finding a pet who will change your life\, too. \n📍 Visit us at both shelter locations:• 3949 Colerain Ave• 4210 Dane Ave🕐 Open daily from 1–6 PM \n🎉 Limited-Time Adoption Specials\nTo help create space quickly\, we’re offering reduced adoption fees all weekend long: \n\nAdult dogs & cats (6+ months): $10\nKittens: $60 or two for $60 (BOGO!)\nPuppies: $200\n\nEvery adoption includes spay/neuter\, vaccinations\, and a microchip—everything your new pet needs to start their next chapter. There is a $5 service fee on all transactions and mandatory $19.75 dog license fee required for adopters if you live in Hamilton County\, Ohio! \n🐶 Flexible Ways to Help\nNot quite ready to commit? You can still make a difference: \n\nFoster-to-adopt options give you time to ensure the right fit\nMany dogs are currently in foster homes\, and meet-and-greets can be arranged by emailing foster@cincycare.org\n\n🏡 Why This Weekend Matters\nRight now\, kennel space is critically limited. Every animal who leaves the shelter—whether through adoption or fostering—creates room for another who may be waiting for help. \nWhen you adopt this weekend\, you are not just changing one life. You are creating a ripple effect that allows us to continue saying “yes” to animals in need across our community. \n🐾 Come Meet Your Match\nFrom playful puppies and curious kittens to gentle seniors and loyal companions\, there is a pet here for every home and lifestyle. \nCome meet them. Spend time. Fall in love.And walk out knowing you made a real difference.
