My story

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

Hello friends, my name is Fortnight and Iandamp;#39;m here to find a family of my very own. I havenandamp;#39;t always known the comfort of a home and I think the world is a pretty scary place at times. I need someone special like you to show me plenty of patience and kindness to help me overcome my fears and gain confidence. If you think that you can show me the devotion I deserve, then wonandamp;#39;t you please be my hero and ask about adopting me today?

Their adoption process

1.

Visit the Facility and Find a Pet

We have daily adoption hours (please check our website for holiday changes), and no appointment is required.

2.

Meet the Pet

Walk through the dog and cat adoption areas, and when a pet tugs on your heart strings, we encourage you to speak with an adoption counselor

3.

Submit Application

Tell us about your expectations, wishes and members of your household on our one-page adopter survey.

4.

Interview

Less an "interview" more "conversation." Your adoption counselor will use your adopter survey as a guide and review the pet's file.

5.

Sign Adoption Contract

You'll be asked to show a government-issued photo identification and proof of your address.

6.

Pay Fee

Check out in our Lora Robins Gift shop where essential supplies for your new companion are available for purchase.

Take the Pet Home

You'll take your new companion home the same day. Expert behavior support is available by calling 804-643-7722.
