Dogs & Puppies

Thank you for choosing Animal Welfare Society as a place to adopt a pet! 

Home | Adopt a Pet | Dogs & Puppies

We regularly have adolescent and adult dogs available for adoption. When we have puppies for adoption, they are listed on this page. Remember that puppies tend to be adopted very quickly, so if you do not see any, please check back again soon.

We look forward to helping to match you with your new best friend and supporting you throughout the adoption process. Adopters are welcome to visit our Adoption Center without a scheduled appointment to meet adoptable pets including dogs, cats, birds and small animals. We are open 7 days a week, from 10 am – 3:30 pm.

All adoptions are on a first come, first served basis. These adoption pages are REAL TIME, so as soon as an animal is adopted, it will “disappear” from the website.

And the winner is... 𝗧𝗘𝗔𝗠 #𝗔𝗪𝗦𝗖𝗔𝗧! Our feline friends are celebrating with catnip as we speak and of course, they`ve received bragging rights over the dogs. Maybe next year Team #awsdog can win back the crown but for now, all hail the cats!

We want to thank our community for their incredible support this Giving Tuesday. Yesterday`s friendly competition between dog lovers and cat lovers has brought in an incredible $𝟏𝟏,𝟕𝟐𝟖 in funds to support the health and wellbeing of the pets in our care. We have been blown away by the kindness and generosity of our community of supporters this year and every year. 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐤 𝐲𝐨𝐮!!!

Sheena was expecting another victory for the dogs today, but so far Team #awscat has remained ahead of the game this Giving Tuesday! However, the night’s not over yet! If you think canines are more cuddly than cats (just look at how cozy Sheena is!), donate to Team #awsdog now and help your favorite species win the crown! 👑 #givingtuesday #dogsrule

Hi folks! My name is Zeus and I`m here to tell you that currently, Team #awsdog is down by almost $1000 in this year`s Giving Tuesday competition. Geesh! That doesn`t make sense to me because the theme is which species is the Coziest Companion: Cats or Canines? I mean, obviously it`s dogs! We love to snuggle on the couch with you, in your bed, on the floor, and even in the car. We`re snuggly machines! I mean, just look me right now all cozy in my winter jacket as I go for a hike. Don`t you just want to hug me?!

Anyway, what I guess I`m saying is that I would love your help getting Team #awsdog to the top so we can keep our crown for two years in a row. I`ll never hear the end of it if I let those pesky felines win! Donate right now and I promise to give you a big sloppy kiss if you come to visit. GO TEAM #AWSDOG!!!
