Adoption Requirements

  • Adopted animals cannot go home until they are sterilized. Animals are sterilized after adoption on the next available surgery date.

  • For the final adoption to occur, all members of the household, including other dogs (if you are interested in a dog,) will need to meet the potential new addition to your family. 

  • Please bring your current photo identification, either California Driver's license, or a California Identification card

  • If you rent, make sure to include your landlord or property manager's information, as we will contact them before any adoption goes through. If you own, please provide proof of homeownership, through the deed, mortgage statements, tax documents, etc. 

  • In order for any adoption to be finalized, you will have to provide proof of address, if your identification doesn't have the address, you may provide a utility bill, or a lease agreement.

​We stop paperwork and adoptions a half-hour before closing. 

We advise that you come in to start the process between 1-4pm.

 

Please be aware that we do not hold animals; there is no guarantee the animal will still be available when you come back, as we do not hold animals if the application is not fully approved.

​

Be sure to give consideration to our many special needs animals, which due to neglect, require some extra "TLC" and commitment. These pets are anxious to find a loving home.
