KALAMAZOO, MI (WKZO AM/FM) – Kzoo Parks is inviting people to a special and free dog-themed event at Fairmount Dog Park at 1108 Prairie Avenue on May 1st.

The SPCA of Southwest Michigan will be hosting an on-site adoption event, giving guests the chance to meet adoptable dogs and potentially take home a new furry family member.
