Adoptable Pets & Our Adoption Process
Below are links that will take you to view our currently available dogs, puppies, cats & kittens! Be sure to complete an adoption application if you find one you believe you will match well with! Our goal is to place pets in lasting, forever loving homes so they are never in the shelter or rescue system again. Please understand we review all applications and choose the best possible homes for our animals. It is NOT on a first-come, first-served basis.

How Do I Know I'm Ready to Add a Pet?
It is important to consider your lifestyle, amount of time and resources avaiable before adding an animal to your home. Unsure if you can commit? Maybe fostering is an option for you instead - have the responsibility of pet ownership, just not the long term commitment!
Start Your Pet Search
What sort of pet are you looking for? What qualities do you hope they have? Are you looking for a dog? Cat? Young? Older? Playful or laid back? We can help you find the perfect new friend!
Meet Our Adoptables
Come meet our adoptable pets! We hold adoption events every THIRD SATURDAY at various locations, and we also welcome one-on-one meet and greets as well!
Fill Out The Adoption Form
Now that you have found a pet you'd like to add to the family - let's fill out an application! This allows us to match the pet with the best possible home. These pets have come into rescue and deserve to find their forever homes.
Ease Your Pet Into Their New Routine with 3-3-3 Rule!
Its important to understand your new friend may not feel comfortable right away. Keep the 3-3-3 rule in mind to help them acclimate to their new surroundings and routine.

Become a Foster or Volunteer!
Want to get out and do something good for the homeless animals in our area? We are ALWAYS looking for volunteers, fosters, and advocates for the animals! You can volunteer at one of our adoption events to help network some of our adoptable animals to the public!
Ever thought about fostering? You're in luck! We have plenty of deserving dogs that would love the comfort of a foster home while they search for their new families. This also helps us learn about the dog's needs and demeanor, which accelerates the adoption process!
