The following day, Sunday, April 20, the organization will continue its efforts at Petco, situated at 6209 TX-191 in Odessa, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. This event invites community members to consider adopting a pet or simply enjoy interacting with the animals available for adoption.
On Saturday, April 26, Grand Companions will bring their adoptable animals to the Midland Downtown Farmers Market, located at 404 N Colorado St., from 8 a.m. to noon. This event features not only these adorable pets but also a variety of local vendors, providing a vibrant community experience.
Further, on Thursday, May 1, “Hike with a Homeless Pet” will offer a unique opportunity for both people and dogs to enjoy the outdoors. Taking place from 9 to 10 a.m. at Sibley Nature Center, 1307 E Wadley Ave., Midland, this event encourages participants to engage with nature while offering homeless dogs a chance to exercise and socialize.
For 35 years, Grand Companions has been a vital resource in the region, committed to rescuing, sheltering, and finding forever homes for homeless animals. Operating from locations in Fort Davis and Midland, the organization has facilitated countless adoptions, strengthening the bond between pets and their new families.
The Bottom Line

These gatherings not only provide a chance to meet potential furry family members but also foster a sense of community and shared purpose. For those who may not be able to adopt, simply participating in these events helps raise awareness about pet adoption and supports the ongoing work of Grand Companions in West Texas.
