Adoption Fees
All animals are spayed/neutered prior to adoption, have received some vaccinations, and have a microchip (a permanent form of identification, where you can register the pet as being yours, including your name and contact information).
If you had to pay for spay/neuter, vaccinations and a microchip yourself, the cost would be significantly higher than the adoption fees listed below!
The adoption fee also includes a free wellness check from your veterinarian for both dogs and cats, and all dog adoptions include one free in-home professional training session (see below for details).
