If your weekends usually include some combination of dogs, barbecues and Bunnings, well, this event is set to sort you out. Pet re-homing organisation Second Chance Animal Rescue is bringing a slew of homeless pups to a Bunnings near you for a national adoption drive.

On Sunday, October 6, the not-profit organisation — which rescues and re-homes cats and dogs in need — is bringing some of its animals to ten Bunnings stores across Melbourne. Head down to have a cuddle with some adorable cats and pups in need of a new home. If you're particularly taken with one of the little guys, you can chat to one of the volunteers about adopting either now or in the future.

To get some puppy pats, rock up to Bunnings — maybe Brunswick, Maribyrnong or Epping — between 11am and 2pm. And if you need some Dulux paint, you'll be able to make a donation to Second Chance's new animal hospital. Hopefully there'll be some snags sizzling, too.
