Did you adopt a pandemic puppy? You're not alone, a survey from ASPCA showed that approximately 23 million American households adopted a pet since the beginning of the COVID-19 crisis.

One of those households was City Editor Adriana's, who adopted her pup Benny from San Antonio Great Dane Rescue. Bennyis not a Great Dane, but that's a tale for another time.

In honor of National Adopt a Shelter Pet Day on Tuesday, April 30, we rounded up a list of nine animal shelters, rescues, and foundations around the Alamo City where you can find your new best friend, or help them find their forever homes.
