    Adoption Applications are available online, or you may stop by the shelter, Monday thru Friday, between the hours of 11 am and 8 pm to complete an Application and learn more about our adoption process.

    Please note that animals can only interact with adoption applicants who have completed an application and met with an adoption counselor.

    For the comfort and well-being of our dogs, only staff and volunteers may enter our kennel area.

    The Adoption Process
    Finding the right pet for your home and the right home for every pet is a challenging goal. The application process and meeting potential pets is time-consuming; please be prepared to spend at least an hour at the shelter.

    Saturdays are very busy, so we encourage you to come during the week if at all possible. Please understand that we try to provide the best possible adoption experience with limited staffing and volunteer help.
  • Please provide contact information and enough detail so that your inquiry can be properly directed and promptly handled. You can check our FAQ first to see if your question is answered there.
