BrightSide is a high-save shelter focused on sheltering and rehabilitating animals, and equipping them for success in their next home. We believe that every animal who enters through our back receiving door deserves the chance to leave through our front door with a secure future.
BrightSide is a private organization, a 501c3 non-profit. We are a community shelter — we are not municipally funded.

Additional adoption info
Successfully adopting a dog depends in large part upon matching the dog’s needs with your family’s needs and lifestyle. A BrightSide adoption coordinator will meet with you to discuss your wants and needs. Then you’ll be introduced individually in our meet-and-greet room to dogs that might be an appropriate match for you. You will be asked to fill out the pet adoption application form. If you are renting your home, the approval of your landlord is required. Our canines are available to meet Tuesday through Saturday 10 a.m. until 3:30 p.m.
Cats are available for adoption are waiting to meet you at the shelter during our normal business hours, Tuesday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Come by and see who strikes your fancy.
