Additional adoption info

Completing the adoption application does not guarantee that you will be able to adopt that particular animal.

For all animals that are not altered at the time of adoption, a $50 deposit fee will be charged. The adopter will have 30 days to have the animal spayed or neutered. Once this is completed, the $50 deposit fee will be refunded.

Michigan State law requires all animals adopted from an animal shelter or rescue group to be spayed or neutered.
