I would love to get a puppy something small live in a apartment. I lost my last dog because of health reasons. Please Help

They ask the community to take care of their free dogs the ones abandoned by irresponsible owners and despise the joy of actually buying a full bred puppy that could make a better pet. They hate on breeders because we’re suppose to all take abandoned animals. Some people have allergies and need other dogs or want dogs who can play with children but they intimidate people to buy otherwise. They complain about not having homes for their dogs but make the process so hard. They are absolutely ridiculous. The whole process has become absurd.

I really wanted to adopt Snookie, but due to my age and fear of covid (not to mention the weather today) I was unable to come to the CAAWS shelter today. My family and I have adopted from CAAWS two other times over the years. I understand your caution when placing an animal for adoption, but our past experience with you should count for something. As an older dog I am afraid Snookie will be hard to place. I hope I am wrong and a loving family makes her a part of their family. Sincerely, Connie (Constance) Meyers

Questions & Answers

Say, someone has a dog they can no longer take care of. Health and financial wise. Or the owner has to move and can’t take the dog with them. Would it be possible to bring the dog here? With no fees or anything?

You're talking about surrending an animal. Yes, they do it but they take down information about whomever surrenders it.

We found a little chihuahua mix puppy by airline and have been asking around to find the owner but no luck. We can not keep her she doesn't get along with our puppy.Can we surrender her to this shelter for free? I want her to find a good home

We have a program where we can list them for adoption, but they usually stay with you while we help find them a home. Or you can surrender them to Companion Animal Alliance - the public shelter that we normally pull dogs from. Before they can be put up for adoption there is a mandatory 5 day hold period where good effort to find the owner must be made. Call the shelter and leave a voice mail if you have more questions and someone should get back to you!

We no longer have an exotic animal chairperson so we only have dogs and cats. There is a ferret rescue locally called Woogie Wescue.

I have 3 cats I have to move and I can't keep them or afford to take care of them rn . Does anyone know a place that will take them in?

Look for an acutal home you took the time.to.findyourself a home right ?! Then take the time to.find them a loving home instead of bringing the poor babies to the shelter. Let your loved one wake.up one day and say I don't have the time nor money for you and drop you off like that

I literally found a kitten on my staircase. Do I have to pay if it’s not my kitten. I guess a surrender?

Hi Ms. Hayden, as of right now we do not have any pugs. Please see our facebook or website to see what we have available. http://www.caaws.org/adopt/dogs or http://www.facebook.com/caawsbr. You could also look for a breed specific rescue such as those found here: https://www.pugvillage.com/pug-rescue/local-pug-rescues. We don't seem to have any locally though.

We do not have any Calico kittens at this time. You can view all of our animals on our website at www.caaws.org or on our facebook page.

Can we bring a kitten? She still drinks milk and she can't see from her one of her eyes. We couldn't take care of her and hope you could.
