The objective of the PAWS adoption program is to find permanent, responsible and loving homes for the animals in our care and educate those who want to incorporate a companion animal into their lives. A responsible home is one in which an animal will receive adequate attention, exercise, medical care, food and shelter – a home where the animal will become an integral part of the family. 

In practice, we strive to match the right companion animal with the right human guardian. That is the reason for screening the potential adopter and occasionally why we may not allow an adoption to occur.  Please review our Adoption Policies before starting the process.

We always have wonderful, loving animals hoping to become pets in approved homes. Both pure and mixed-breed animals are available for adoption. Adoption fees include the cost of spaying and neutering, initial inoculations, heartworm pre-screen for dogs and feline leukemia testing for cats which are all done before the animal leaves the shelter.
