Then you’ll be introduced individually in our meet-and-greet room to dogs that might be an appropriate match for you. You will be asked to fill out the pet adoption application form. If you are renting your home, the approval of your landlord is required. Our canines are available to meet Tuesday through Saturday 10 a.m. until 3:30 p.m.
Cats are available for adoption are waiting to meet you at the shelter during our normal business hours, Tuesday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Come by and see who strikes your fancy.

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.
