Things to Know Before You Visit
Please feel free to stop by and view our adoptable animals during business hours.
Dogs and puppies are by appointment only.
Our hours change based on the time of year. Due to the fact that the adoption process takes time to include the meet and greet plus paperwork processing, we ask that you arrive no less than 45 minutes prior to closing. We are not able to successfully complete the entire adoption process in any less than 45 minutes. We thank you for your cooperation in this matter so that we can provide the best experience possible. If you rent your home, we require written approval from your landlord stating you are allowed to have a pet.
