Adoption

 Email Adoption Form Online

Email Adoption Form Online

Due to the high volume of applications we are not in position to return messages or call everyone. We will keep applications on file for two months and request that people contact us to follow up on applications. Thank you.

Use this form if you would like us to recieve your Adoption Application online. Fill out the form, then click the Send Application Online button at the bottom. Be as complete as you can, the more information we have, the easier it will be for all concerned.

Please call to check on the status of your application, or stop by and visit with the animals while we verify your application. All animals are available on a first-come first-serve basis. Emailing an application in ahead of time saves you from having to fill one out while at the shelter, but does not put you on any form of priority list. Thank you for your understanding.

If you would prefer, you can use our alternate Printable Adoption Form, which you can print out and bring with you to the shelter.
