Harrison is looking for a good home.

He is one of a number of dogs from the Manteca Animal Shelter that will be at the “Mimosas and Mutts” event today at the Deaf Puppy Comedy Club, 127 North Main St., from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on the new back patio.

The mimosas are $4.

The pet adoption is free.

The Manteca Animal Shelter will handle all the fees including for Harrison, the dog whose photo accompanies this story.

There is also a brunch menu available.

People can bring their pets down as well in hopes of acclimating the rescues hopefully with new housemates.

Half the proceeds from the mimosa sales will go to the animal shelter.

Donations directly to the animal shelter are also welcome.

The Manteca facility is now a no-kill shelter thanks to efforts of the city and volunteers.

One of those efforts — the Doggie Day Out program — has been popular with Manteca residents.

It involves either taking a dog in the shelter for a walk or fostering a dog for a week or more.

Since it started in January of 2023, more than 500 volunteers have participated with 82 of them adopting a pet.

The program is managed by volunteer Raquel Fresquez.

Some residents foster a cat or a dog for 30-60 days until they find their forever home. Some foster newborn kittens until they are old enough to be spayed or neutered.

Changes allowed the shelter to gain no-kill status in 2023.

That’s because 91% of all animals that came into the facility last year were adopted into new homes.

Two years ago, 47% of the animals in the shelter’s care had a live outcome.
