Adopt a Dog
Please note we now use a paperless, appointment-based adoption process for your convenience. You can now automatically place a pet on hold — wherever you are — by using our online adoption survey.
Our 3-Step Dog Adoption Process
Step 1: Submit an adoption survey
Use the Specific Pet survey to put a particular pet on hold for you, or use the General Process survey to get a head start as you look for your match.
Step 2: Schedule your appointment
Learn more about the pet you’re interested in and continue with the adoption process, or sit down and discuss what you’re looking for so we can find you a great match.
Step 3: Finalize your adoption!
Once you’ve met the pet at your appointment and signed the papers, it's official! Your new best friend will be ready to go home with you right away.
Removing Breed Labels
Adopting the dog you're interested in, not the dog you think you'll get based on the breeds listed on an information sheet. Learn more about Breed Labels>
Featured Pet: SAWYER
Meet Sawyer, a 10-year-old gentleman with the spiritedness of a puppy! Sawyer is bouncy, playful, and super energetic. You'd never know he's a senior! He enjoys games of fetch and is a big fan of diving into piles of toys. When he isn't busy playing to his heart's content, he enjoys sitting by your side, offering affection and kisses. If you're looking for a fun and happy dog to keep you company, Sawyer might just be your perfect match.
