My name is VERA!

All animals are adopted to qualified applicants on a first-come-first-serve basis. Adoption fees are $60 for adult dogs, $75 for puppies, and $50 for cats and kittens.

All adopted animals will be spayed/neutered, current on vaccinations, protected again fleas and ticks, microchipped, sent home with a free bag of Science Diet pet food, and much more!

The shelter has also partnered with local veterinarians to provide a free Health Care Certificate with every adoption. The certificate offers a free exam for your pet from your choice of participating veterinarians and has a value of up to $500 in savings.
