A Hudson Valley animal rescue is hosting a big send-off to summer with a luau!

Compassionate Animal Rescue Efforts of Dutchess County, located in Wappingers Falls, has had a busy summer rescuing pups from all across the United States. The rescue made headlines after taking in 19 of the 4,000 beagles saved from atrocious conditions at a breeding facility in Virginia back in August.

If you're looking to rescue a pup or kitten to join your family, the CARE of DC family will be hosting a Dog Days of Summer Luau adoption event. On Saturday, September 3rd at 60 Smith Crossing in Wappingers there will be food trucks, live music, vendors and raffles to round out a fantastic summer.
