Areas Doggie Protective Services (DPS) - Palo Alto serves
We do adoptions in Campbell, San Jose and Palo Alto. See our schedule at the bottom so you can come out and meet us and our dogs. It doesn't matter what your zip code is, if you're a match for our dog and you are willing to meet at our adoption site, we are happy to pursue an adoption. We travel from No. CA to So CA to Las Vegas so we are willing to adopt to all areas. We do not ship our dogs though, so it's a face to face meeting. If you're planning to travel quite a distance, make sure you fill out the application first, do the interview and are set up to be the first to meet the pooch of your choice. We value your time too.
