Lee County Domestic Animal Services' goal is to place companion animals with responsible owners. Our first consideration must be for the welfare of the animal. Therefore, anyone wishing to adopt an animal must submit an adoption application for approval prior to visiting the animal, either online or in person at our shelter. After your application is approved, a volunteer or staff member will assist you in visiting with a pet during adoption hours, Monday through Saturday, 10:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
