Stray animals are held for three days before they are eligible to be released for adoption. This time period allows a current owner time to reclaim a lost pet. During this period the animal will be evaluated to determine their temperament and general health. We try our best to give as much information as possible about every animal up for adoption, but please remember that many times our ability to obtain information is limited. Owner surrendered animals can immediately be put up for adoption and we generally have much more information about these animals. We try very hard to find homes for the animals, but this is not always possible. In the interest of community safety, we do not offer for adoption, any vicious or aggressive animals.

Most of the animals we receive have not been vaccinated and may be harboring contagious diseases. We try very hard to identify these animals and isolate them as quickly as possible. Although we make diligent efforts, using a comprehensive health evaluation to ensure the health of every animal made available for adoption, on occasion an adopted pet will become sick. If this occurs within a one-week period, please let us know and we will refund your money or allow you the opportunity to select another pet from our shelter. Please understand that if your pet becomes sick (within the one-week period) you should return him/her to the shelter. The Shelter WILL NOT accept ANY financial responsibility (including veterinarian bills) for the animal you have adopted.

The majority of the animals up for adoption are already spayed and/or neutered. If animals are too young to be spayed and/or neutered, appointments will be set by the shelter. The expense for this service (when required) is covered in the adoption fee. Our phone number is 336-357-0805.
