Prior to adoption, all of our animals are given all core vaccines according to their age. All animals are spayed or neutered prior to being available for adoption. Stray animals that are brought in are held for the legally required timeframe prior to being available for adoption. All dogs and puppies are required to leave our facility after adoption wearing a collar and leash. You are welcome to bring your own, or purchase some at our Center. All cats and kittens are required to leave our Center after adoption in a cat carrier. You are welcome to bring your own carrier, or purchase one at our Center.

Some animals may be microchipped prior to adoption. Our staff will share with their adopters the microchip information and steps for registration. If your newly adopted animal is not microchipped already, our staff will microchip them during adoption if requested.

All animals are sent home with starter food, to help avoid your newly adopted pet from getting sick due to a sudden change in food.
