Additional adoption info
$180 for dogs, $100 for cats. All animals must be fixed at the time of adoption, or the owner is required to sign a contract stating they will have their animal fixed within 60 days of adoption. Once fixed, the owner will receive a refund of $100 for dogs, and $75 for cats. All animals are microchipped, vaccinated, and dewormed, and held for a minimum of 14 days after arriving at the shelter to rule out any diseases. They are also flea, earmite and fecal checked by our Veterinary Technicians. Adopters must fill out an application, which is reviewed by two senior staff for approval.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?
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, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
