Come visit us!
Potential adopters can visit the shelter Friday, Saturday or Sunday 12-5pm. Appointments are preferred (submit adoption application and you will receive an invite). Drop-ins are welcome, but you may need to wait if the adoption office is busy.
When possible, we typically also host several monthly adoption events with our animals, especially in warmer weather, in addition to our open adoption hours at the shelter.
We also host and participate in many community events. Be sure to follow us on social media and sign up to get our newsletter to receive ongoing notifications of new events.
Note: If you are visiting the shelter, please fill out an adoption application prior to arrival to expedite the process.
