Why adopt

Adoption changes two lives

Yours, and your new best friend’s.

Every adoption gives a pet a home and frees up space for another animal in need.

Adoption fees are typically lower than breeder prices, and many shelter pets are already vaccinated and spayed or neutered.

Your adoption helps the animal welfare groups doing important work in your community.

Shelters care for puppies, adults and seniors, purebreds and mixes alike.

Shelter staff know their animals and can help you find a pet that fits your lifestyle.
