Adoption Process

Come in to our adoption center and fill out a brief adoption survey. You will answer questions about what you're looking for in a pet. Our volunteers will review your survey and answer any questions you may have. Our goal is to find the best match for you and your lifestyle. Bring the whole family! If you already have resident dogs, we strongly encourage dog-to-dog introductions as a part of the match-making process and may require it in most cases. If your pet meet is a success, you will complete some paperwork and learn about the many "extras" included with each adoption. Then you and your new family member can go home and begin your "Happy Tails" life! We have a variable adoption fee policy based on an animal's age, breed, temperament, behavioral issues, and physical condition.
