Additional adoption info

Our adoption process includes filling out an application, having a meet and greet with the dog of interest, completing a home check, and calling for a vet reference. If a home check is not feasible, we will accept pictures of the home environment. Once all of this has been completed, and the interested party is approved for adoption, we collect the adoption contract and adoption fee.

Our fee covers any vet visits, medication necessary to the health of the dog, and a spay/neuter voucher good for our local vet. Adoption fees start at $150. Dogs under 1 year are $250. Fees can be more based on age and breed of dog being considered for adoption.

Please note that it may take a couple of days to hear back from someone as we have to take time to read through your application and inquiries.

Adopt a Pet is the easiest way for you to search for a new pet in Beaufort, NC.

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.
