My story

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

Meet Poppy! Poppy came into our shelter surprising us one morning by being tied to a bench in our parking lot. She was immediately affectionate and kind with us and quickly stole the hearts of our staff. She was emaciated and was treated for a UTI but not once did she let her illness affect the love she wanted to give back to us. Poppy made recovery quickly, showing interest in food with her first foster, and allegedly playing with the fosterandamp;#39;s personal dog and tolerated her cats/didnandamp;#39;t pay them extreme attention. Poppy was 2 months when she first entered our system, and now sheandamp;#39;s almost 6 months old and ready for her forever home! If youandamp;#39;re willing to give her the proper training and care she needs, she may be perfect for you.

Their adoption process

1.

Visit the Facility and Find a Pet

With hundreds of pets at the shelter and in foster, we recommend checking our website before visiting in person.

2.

Meet the Pet

We recommend bringing the whole family, including resident dogs, to meet the pet you're interested in adopting to ensure it's a good match.

3.

Sign Adoption Contract

Our adoption team will review the adoption contract with you. Adoption fees are $30 for dogs and $5 for cats unless during a special promo.

Additional adoption info

All adoptions are on a first-come, first-served basis and must be made in person. As a high-intake shelter, most of the pets that come to us are strays, meaning we have limited background history on the pet, such as health, behavioral or living history. All adoptions include the animal's spay/neuter procedure, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and city license. All adoptions include a 7 day free trial with our training partner, GoodPup to help ease the transition!
