In addition to donations and fundraising efforts, the shelter is generously funded by the City of Spearfish, Lawrence County, and various grants.

Although we occasionally adopt out of our immediate area, we are committed to caring for our animals for their entire lives. We prefer to adopt locally as if the new living situation does not work we want our animals to be able to be returned to us to rehome.
Additional adoption info
Visit us at 324 Industrial Drive 10am - 4pm daily except closed on Sundays and Wednesdays.
Adoptions require TWO visits prior to beginning the adoptions process in order to walk (dogs), play with and /or generally interact with the animals to ensure that the cat or dog you choose is the right one for your family. In the best interest of both the pet and you as the prospective guardian it may take up to five days for review and a decision.
