Come Meet our Pets:

Location varies depending on the situation. We travel around to meet adopting families and host adoption events and our center is located just west of Austin in Dripping Springs. Hours are very flexible and made by appointment.

Our Adoption Process:

Adopting families fill out a 2 page adoption application and are then interviewed by an adoption counselor. If the application is approved, we may do a home visit and schedule a meet and greet with the dog. We will then sign an adoption contract and collect a $165 adoption fee. The adoption fee covers any care the dog has received to date, spay/neuter, all vaccinations, rabies certificate and microchip.

Our Adopted Pets:

We have helped lots of pets connect with loving and caring owners. Check out our adopted pets list!

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a dog or puppy versus getting dogs for sale or puppies for sale from a dog breeder? When someone is breeding puppies, they are creating new dogs who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog or puppy and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale from a puppy breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs who must find homes. So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog or adopt a puppy at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
