1. We are doing adoptions by appointment only, no walk-ins or drop-ins. Check what animals we have for adoption on our web page (its updated), and let us know who you want to meet and we will set up a meet and greet. We do not reserve any pets until application is approved, we do not do same day adoption, and we check every reference submitted.

2. After meeting an animal you are interested in, fill out the Adoption Application to the left. We do not pre-approve application until after meet and greet.

3. Please make sure you have the following items to complete your adoption process.
  • Two valid forms of ID (must be 21 years and over)
  • $250 Adoption fee for dogs 
  • $200 Adoption fee for cats
  •  Two References
  •   Lease or Letter from landlord allowing animal

4. Want to adopt a dog, and have a dog already? Bring in your dog, so they can meet.

5. Upon approval of application, we'll contact you and schedule pick-up of your new best friend. Please note it is best to bring home an animal at the start of the weekend when you have time to settle in with your new family member.

6. Start a great life together!
