You can search for a pet online or go to the shelter. Click here  to view descriptions and pictures of animals that are currently at our shelter.

If I find a pet I want to adopt online, what do I do?

• Click here to review the Adoption Requirements
• Go to the shelter as soon as you are able.  There is no guarantee that the pet you have identified online will still be available when you arrive at the shelter.
• If the pet you wanted is no longer available, please consider adopting another animal in our shelter. Each day there are over 300 loveable dogs and cats looking for a good home.
  

Is there anything I should bring with me to the shelter when I find the pet that I would like to adopt?

• Don't forget to bring the animal's unique online identification number with you to the shelter.  This will help you move through the adoption process faster.
  

Can I put a hold on an animal?

• At this time, we are unable to reserve a specific animal or secure an adoption by calling the shelter ahead of time. Only by going in person to the Shelter located at, 7401 NW 74th Street, can you put a hold on a specific animal.
• Not all pets in the website are or will be available for adoption.  You must go in person to place the hold, but this pet may have not passed the health and/or temperament evaluations or may be pending evaluation, so you may not be able to see it.
