MINNEAPOLIS-ST. PAUL, MN - The Minnesota Twins today announced plans for the first-ever Twins Pet Adoption Day on Saturday, June 2nd at Target Field Station prior to the Twins vs. Indians game at 3:10 p.m. Secondhand Hounds will be on-site leading up to game time at Target Field Station with adoptable dogs as well as a litter of puppies.
 
"Secondhand Hounds is thrilled to partner with the Minnesota Twins, Renters Warehouse, and It's Just Lunch for the First Annual Pet Adoption Day," said Rachel Mairose, Executive Director of Secondhand Hounds. "It's so great to see multiple organizations come together for a common goal! We are excited to see how many pooches can find their forever home through this partnership. Hopefully we will knock it out of the park!"
 
The event, which is presented by Renters Warehouse and It's Just Lunch, will also feature a kissing booth for guests to donate for a dog kiss. Dog attendees will be selected based on the availability of the foster home.
 
"We often talk about how one of our core values at Renters Warehouse is 'serve,' and usually, that means our clients and our community, but today - we're excited to be helping our community's furry friends too," said Kevin Ortner, President and CEO of Renters Warehouse. "We greatly value pet-friendly landlords and tenants, and we are proud to support Secondhand Hounds' mission to help at-risk animals find their forever home."
 
"Both It's Just Lunch and Secondhand Hounds share a passion for finding people their ideal match: whether that be with another person or with the perfect rescue animal," said Sara Darling, CEO/Owner of It's Just Lunch.
