Available Animals

Various types and breeds of animals are available for adoption at the shelter.  We list as many as we can on our petfinder.com page, but there are more at the shelter than on the site.  Please be aware, while we try to keep our pet list as current as possible, we cannot guarantee an animal will still be available when you arrive.

Stray Animals

A stray animal must be held for 7 days to give its owner a chance to reclaim it.  During this period, the animal is not available for adoption.  Strays will be made available after the holding period and once behavioral and medical evaluations have been completed.  The Shelter will not pre-adopt any animal.
