We have many wonderful animals available for adoption! View our adoptable pets online, or stop by in person to visit. We constantly have new animals coming to the shelter. Keep in mind that adoptions occur frequently. Therefore, we can not guarantee the availability of an animal listed online.

The shelter’s adoption package includes the adoption fee, spay or neuter cost, vaccinations and a one-year pet license.

June is Adopt a Shelter Cat Month.

Reduced Adoption Fees for the month of June :

$35 for cats & $5 for small animals.

Adoption Process

A drivers license, a picture ID or passport, plus documentation of your current residence is required for all adoptions.
You can pay by cash, check, Visa or MasterCard.
Prior to the adoption, homes with children and other dogs require a mandatory "Meet and Greet". The "Meet and Greet" is to assist with a smooth adoption process and to ensure you find the perfect match.
Pets that are already spayed or neutered can be taken home at the time of adoption.
Pets that have not been spayed or neutered prior to adoption will remain at the shelter. A customer service representative will schedule the next available appointment at our facility. The customer service representative will provide the date and time of pick up for the newly adopted pet.
In the event your pet is unable to be altered, a $100.00 cash or credit card refundable deposit is required in order to take the animal home. A customer service representative will explain the refund process.
