My story

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

Jerrico's motto? Carpe Diem!

He's always ready for an adventure, whether it's a leisurely walk or a brisk jog. Plus, he's a pro at chilling out once the excitement dies down. This handsome 3 year old pup is as friendly as they come and gets along famously with other dogs. But when it comes to his forever home, Jerrico is looking for a tranquil environment with adults.

With his excitable energy and affectionate nature, Jerrico is the ultimate sidekick for any outdoor enthusiast! And did we mention he's an expert at following commands and earning treats? Don't miss out on making Jerrico your new best friend!

You must be at least 21 years of age to adopt any animal from our shelter. We reserve the right to refuse any adoption. In some instances, a home visit may be required. Our fees vary depending on the age and breed of the animal. Typically, a mix breed is $110.00 and a purebreed is $150.00 and up. There is also an altering charge of $85.00 for a male and $95.00 for a female. All animals receive vaccines, microchip identification, frontline treatments.

Go meet their pets

We are opened 7 days a week between the hours of 12:00-5:00pm for adoptions. No appt is necessary and we welcome prospective adopters to bring their current pet for a meet and greet with one of our orphans.
