My story

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

Rocket enjoys classical dog music so much that he begins to fall asleep! Noises (both small and big) startle him. He appreciates slow interactions, soft petting, and gentle sweet talk. Once he begins to trust you, he will wag his tail softly to say he is happy to see you! When you become trusted by Rocket, he will willingly crawl into your lap, lick your hand, and come when called. He needs help with building his confidence and building appropriate socialization skills.

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process consist of filling out an agreement document that specifies the adopter will have the adopted animal vaccinated for rabies and spayed/neutered as needed, within an appropriate time period. Currently the adoption fee is $50, but $40 of that comes back in the form of a voucher than can be used at local veterinarians for the rabies vaccination and/or spay/neuter procedure.

Go meet their pets

Our shelter is open to the public every Tuesday through Saturday from 12 - 5pm.

We do have officers on duty everyday (including holidays) to clean, check-on and feed the animals in the shelter.
