Adoption Overview

Adopting an animal should not be an impulse decision or done in haste. Please take the time to research which breed would be best for you & your family. We can help you with this at the shelter or you can do it online at petfinder.com. We also recommend that you make frequent visits to the shelter – spend time with the animals you might be interested in – get to know them & let them get to know you.

We want our animals to be happy with you and you to be happy with the animal(s) you’ve chosen to become a member of your family.

Recommendations

We recommend that all dogs adopted be indoor or indoor/outdoor dogs with an enclosed kennel area. This eases the risk of loss, diseases, injury, etc. Please take the proper precautions during inclement weather – especially extreme cold.
Cats/kittens should be kept strictly indoors to avoid disease, injury, loss and predators.

Safety

We want our adopted pets to have a safe transition. Please have the following items ready to transport your pet from the SPCA to your home: All cats must go home in a pet carrier. All dogs must go home with a properly fitting collar and on a leash.
