My story

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

Alfalfa came to us as a stray, along with "Darla", his best bud, found by the public near Shepherd. He will be available for adoption on 10/30/24.

Adoption Holds can be placed on pets for a non-refundable fee of $50 for up to three (3) days, when stray holds are complete. Adoption hold fees count towards the adoption fee and are transferable.
All pets are fully vaccinated at the time of adoption and includes one year Rabies, spay or neuter surgery prior to adoption or scheduled through The Clinic at the time of adoption for a return no cost visit.

Additional adoption info

The adoption fee covers the spay/neuter surgery, rabies vaccination, basic vaccinations, microchipping, and care. All basic vaccinations will be current at the time of adoption.
A potential adopter is required to fill out an adoption application which includes information regarding their home environment, current/prior pets, etc. We also require them to provide at least 2 references. A volunteer will review the application, contact the references, and provide information regarding the specific pet they are interested in adopting. If we receive a favorable response when we contact the references, the potential adopter is then required to complete the actual adoption contract. We encourage communication by email. Due to our limited staff, our office is only open part-time, but we will return all phone calls as soon as possible.
