Adoption Policy
Adopting a rescued dog can be one of the most rewarding experiences of your life! These dogs seem to know they have been given a second chance to live long, happy lives with families who will cherish them forever. Our volunteers work very hard to ensure our rescues are given that opportunity....to find their own forever families who will give them their own Happy Tail!
Don't buy puppies at pet stores while shelter animals die. They want to give love and be loved too. Spay & Neutering DOES save lives.
And check out our cats and kittens and other small animals who are waiting for forever homes too!
