ADOPTION INFO

How exciting! You've decided to add to your family through adoption! You've come to the right place and we would love to help you find the perfect pet for your family. We thank you for choosing to Adopt-Not-SHOP. 

Our adoption process is designed to ensure each animal is matched with a home suitable for their specific needs and energy level, a place they can be loved and cared for in every way that they need, a happy place to call their FOREVER HOME.

Please make sure to visit our ADOPTION PROCESS page for more information. 

There are NO Perfect Pets. An animal is a lifetime commitment and requires love, understanding, patience and training, especially during their transition to a new home. Each animal is an individual and deserves commitment and effort from you. Loving a pet can be a rewarding experience with the right amount of attention and care - they certainly give you much more love in return than you can ever imagine.

When you are ready, please fill out and submit the application below:
