Please visit our shelter, we are open 7 days a week and adoptions opens daily at 11 a.m. All adopters must complete a pre-adoption application on the shelter's website www.humanebroward.com. Once completed visit the shelter, select the pet(s) you would like to meet and an adoption counselor will assist you. Please bring your driver's license with you or a bill that has your current address on it. All pets are spayed or neutered prior to going home, so the pet may not go home the same day.
The adoption fee includes spay/neuter surgery, preliminary vaccinations, deworming, treatment for fleas, microchip, limited 14 day health care plan courtesy of VCA Animal Hospitals, feline leukemia test for cats, heartworm test for dogs over the age of 7 months, and a bag of Purina ONE pet food.
