My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet our newest foster pup, Thumper! He's 4 months old and adorable with his long lanky legs! He's spunky and playful! He enjoys a good zoom in the yard and loves playing with toys! He does great with our dogs, especially our bigger ones. (Perhaps a bit too playful for our older, smaller chihuahua). He's slept well through most of the night so far, staying on a dog bed on the floor.
Today, his second full day with us, we've seen more of his confidence and mischievousness come out. He enjoyed barking at his arch nemesis, the vacuum cleaner. And he was overjoyed when we had the kiddie pool and the water hose out - so he's definitely a water dog!
After a some play time, he's ready for a good nap. Did I mention, he's quite the cuddler? He loves to sit real close to his human friends or even across their lap for some solid snuggle time.

Additional adoption info

It would be our privilege to help you find a puppy, dog, cat, kitten, horse, or other animal that suits your needs. Our knowledgeable hands-on staff is familiar with each of our rescue animals and will be glad to answer any questions you might have. Looking for a cat-friendly dog, a laid back kitten or a horse with a lot of personality? We can help.

To start the process, visit our refuge – and if you haven’t yet seen it, you will be pleasantly surprised. You will be able to interact with the animals in a stress-free environment, unlike a traditional kennel.

Once you have found the perfect, new companion, we will assist you in completing an application. Following a reference check, approval of the form and payment of the adoption fee, you will be able to take home your new pet.
Adoption Fees include:

• Dogs, six months and older: heartworm preventative, flea preventative, preventative worming and vaccinations. $150
• Puppies, under six months: preventative worming and spay/neuter procedure, if age appropriate, or certificate for procedure. $200
• Cats, six months or older: Felv/Fiv snap test, vaccinations, spay/neuter. No fee

More about this shelter

Alaqua Animal Refuge was founded in 2007 by Walton County, Fla.-resident Laurie Hood when she discovered that countless animals were being euthanized due to the lack of a no-kill shelter/adoption organization in the area. Since that time, Alaqua Animal Refuge has helped find homes for more than 10,000 animals. Currently, up to 100 animals are adopted per month from this unique shelter and adoption center, which serves as a true refuge for more than 500 animals at any given time.

As we grow and develop our facility and operations, we will adhere to our guiding purpose: To give neglected, lost and abandoned animals a chance at life.
