Adoption Procedures

While in the Shelter, PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH ANY OF THE ANIMALS! We want to eliminate the possibility of disease spreading from animal to animal.

If you wish to see one of the animals out of its cage, please ask a kennel aide for assistance.

Upon entering our shelter, please take time to notice all our animals. If you are interested in an animal, ask a kennel aide (in scrubs), a volunteer, or the reception desk for someone to assist you. For safety purposes, we ask that no more than two guests enter a bonding room at a time.

Next, after deciding on an animal, an adoption form must be filled out. We have a one (1) to three (3) business day approval period. YOU MUST BE 21 YEARS OLD TO ADOPT AN ANIMAL!

If approved, we will call you and set up a pickup time for you to come in and take your new pet home. If you are not approved, a brief explanation will be given for the denial.

Remember, our policy at this shelter is to spay and neuter ALL ANIMALS before they go home. With your help, we hope to be able to cut down on the unwanted pet population in this area.
