Love was in the air during a dog adoption event hosted by Advancial Federal Credit Union at its Lafayette, La. branch.

The $1.1 billion credit union headquartered in Dallas, partnered with multiple area rescue organizations including Acadiana Animal Aid, Animal Rescue Foundation of Louisiana (ARF-LA) and Friends of Lafayette Animal Shelter. Camp Bow Wow participated in the day's festivities as well, offering training tips to new pet parents, and showcasing some of their best students. The Cacklin Hens food truck was at the branch all day, serving up home style Cajun food for breakfast and lunch. Despite the grey skies and low temperatures, the day was a success, and many of the dogs in attendance found forever homes.

"At Advancial, we're committed to our communities, our members and our pets, so this event was a natural extension of that commitment," Deborah Griesbach, chief marketing officer at Advancial said. "We were thrilled to be able to work with Lafayette shelters and find forever homes for these dogs."
