We do our best to prepare the dogs and cats for adoption by providing the following services:

-All animals are spayed or neutered prior to adoption.
-All dogs have received age-appropriate vaccines including bordetella, distemper, and rabies, as well as monthly flea treatment and nail trims.
-All cats have received age-appropriate vaccines, including distemper and rabies vaccines.
-Most local veterinarians offer a complimentary initial exam of a shelter pet.
