Our adoption process is designed to help us find the best possible pet match for you. Adopters are required to bring their entire family to the shelter to visit with the pet to ensure compatibility prior to adoption. When you arrive at the shelter, you will be asked to sign a Visitor Waiver. Each family member visiting must complete and sign a waiver (or have a parent/guardian sign if under 18- See Visitor Waiver 2). To save time, you may fill out the waiver prior to your visit and just sign when you arrive at the shelter:

• Visitor Sign In and Release Adult
• Visitor Sign In and Waiver and Release Minor

Adoptions are first come first serve, but as a courtesy a one-time hold of 24 hours or end of next business day may be placed on a pet starting when we receive your completed application. Applications are processed in the order they are received:
