The Germantown Animal Shelter strives to place homeless dogs and cats into adoptive homes. At capacity, the shelter can house fifteen dogs and twenty-five cats. Animals are only accepted from Germantown residents when space is available. Please note, a $50 fee is assessed for surrendered animals. The Germantown Animal Shelter is also responsible for enforcing all animal-related ordinances.
Adoption fees are $80 per animal and an Adoption Questionnaire is required. For cats, this fee includes: spay/neuter surgery, first round of vaccinations and rabies, fecal testing/deworming, FIV/FeLV testing and microchipping. For dogs, this fee includes: spay/neuter surgery, first round of vaccinations and rabies, fecal testing/deworming, heartworm testing (treatment if needed) and microchipping. All animals are examined at Germantown Farmington Animal Hospital and medically cleared prior to adoption.
