Our Mission is to promote and provide for the humane treatment of cats and dogs in Forsyth County, North Carolina.
When you are ready to adopt your new pet: Submit an adoption application for a dog. Submit an adoption application for a cat. Note: Please bring a pet carrier when you come to adopt! We do offer cardboard carriers for $5. Once you have submitted an application online, our adoptions team will reach out with next steps. Our knowledgeable counselors will review the arrangements you’ve made for your new pet and review his or her medical history, current vaccinations, microchip, spay/neuter surgery, and behavioral needs. This is a great time to ask about training, veterinary care, proper nutrition, grooming, or anything else you’d like to know. Adoptions end half an hour before we close. All animals adopted through the FHS are spayed or neutered as a condition of adoption.
