Please note:

(1)There is a 24 hr. minimum waiting period from the time you submit an adoption application BEFORE you are approved OR denied. There is no guarantee that you will hear from us within that 24 hr. time period, but we do notify applicants via email, so please make sure to check your email, including your spam folder. If you have not received an email within 48 hrs., please call the shelter to make sure that your adoption application has been received.

(2) If your application is incomplete, you may not receive a response from us. Please be sure to read the entire application (we ask for a video of yard and/or a detailed exercise plan if there is no yard) Please remember, we are very busy and do our best to respond to everyone.

(3) It is possible that even though you may be approved to adopt an animal from us, you may not be awarded the adoption. Our first priority is finding the best home for each of our animals, and we must use our judgment and experience to make that decision.
