How the Adoption Process Works: 

  • Visit https://animalfoundation.com/adopt-a-pet/adoption-search to browse adoptable animals to have an idea of what you are looking for when you arrive. 
  • Adoptions take place on a first-come, first-served basis for walk-in traffic, beginning at 11 am each day. Depending on the volume of patrons each day, adoption services may close before 7 PM once our capacity is reached.
  • When you arrive, you may browse the adoption area for a pet, or if you have an animal in mind, please note the animal ID# and you'll be able to speak with an adoption counselor.
  • Please note, that patrons sometimes line up before we open to meet a pet, especially during adoption events. 
  • We do not place holds on pets.
  • Please do not bring your current pets with you to the shelter. We do not allow in-shelter dog-to-dog introductions. The shelter is a strange and stressful place for most pets and does not provide an accurate indication of how the animals will act in a home environment. The most successful dog-to-dog introductions are properly staged outside the shelter environment. We provide step-by-step instructions on how to properly introduce your new pet to resident pet(s).
