Additional adoption info

Our dog adoption fee is $40.00 which includes a microchip. All our animals are microchipped prior to leaving the shelter. There is an adoption application that must be filled out prior to adopting your dog. If the dog is not spayed or neutered you will have to sign a sterilization contract with us and the adoption is not legal until you bring us back a copy of where your dog was spayed/neutered and a copy of the rabies certification. Some of our dogs and cats have been spayed /neutered. On cats the adoption fee is $40.00. As with the dogs, adoptions aren't legal until animal has been given a rabies shot and been spayed/neutered.
