Adopting from this shelter
Adoption process
Adoptions are completed in person at the shelter: you fill out a questionnaire, tour the available animals, meet the one you're interested in, and then pay the adoption fee to take them home the same day. Applicants must be at least 18, show photo ID with current address, and renters need landlord approval or a lease showing pets are allowed; a home check may sometimes be required.
