Congratulations on your decision to add a four-legged friend to your family! We want to make sure you get the pet that fits your lifestyle and your needs, so we offer insights from our certified animal trainer.

You can visit our cat and dog pages to see what animals are available. Please remember that the availability of our animals changes all the time and not all animals at the shelter are pictured.

Matching People to Pets
When you see the animal you want to adopt, please call or visit the shelter to get more information. Adoptions must be completed at our shelter. When you come in, we’ll ask you some questions about your family, lifestyle, housing situation, and current expectations so that our staff can best match your needs with our great shelter residents.
