On Saturday, October 10, 2026, Castle Subaru McHenry welcomed local families and animal lovers to its annual Fetch a Friend Pet Adoption event. The day celebrated the joy of pet adoption and brought our neighbors together. Castle Subaru McHenry partnered with A Heart for Animals to help shelter pets find loving, permanent homes in the McHenry community.

Fetch a Friend Pet Adoption Event Highlights

One of the most rewarding parts of the day was watching neighbors and families come together to help shelter dogs find forever homes. Working side by side with A Heart for Animals, the event gave attendees the chance to meet adoptable dogs, learn about the adoption process, and see firsthand the joy a rescue pet can bring to a family.

The impact of Fetch a Friend reached beyond the dealership lot. Six dogs found their path toward loving homes. Tilly, Darcy, Captain, and Frankie were adopted following the event, and Joey and Coco were also adopted.
