They will forever have a different adoption tomorrow. A cat I rescue from the streets of Glendale, Az to this area of Springfield, Il someone we knew wanted this cat to adopt. My goal is to find work and socialize animals forever homes. Well my cat jack wasnt a match well, he landed behind a wall. Jacks mom brought me her baby to my door. Without any question he was welcome home. Was the day he was sent to his new family. But soon he will be home with his family.

Our dog got out of the yard last night. Do we have to wait until you open on Monday, to see if you picked up our Rosie. You can reach us at 638-5877. It was her last trip of the night, so she did not have her ID collar on her.

Latosha Holder | Oct 3, 2021
Thomas Sipes | Oct 3, 2021

Yes they do, rabies, neutered and microchipping can all be done there. The prices I different I believe if you are bringing your dog in or adopting . The adoption fee was 80 dollars if I remember correctly and all three were included. The rabies shot was a 1 year shot. Oh and our boy is a Pitt as well.

Sorry, the county does not monitor this Google page. Your best option is to call their phone number during business hours usually between 8:00 AM – 3:00 PM. Good luck!

Can adoption be done same day

Mary Turley | Oct 3, 2021
Melissa Wilson | Oct 3, 2021

Highly unlikely. The next day probably. Even if you are approved you can't take them home the same day since sometimes they haven't been fixed or had their shots yet, plus they microchip them before they leave. You can usually have them home within a couple days though.

Is this a no-kill shelter

Shane Snyder | Oct 3, 2020
Josh Witkowski | Oct 3, 2020

No, but they make every attempt to avoid euthanasia. They partner with different groups to publicize adoptions and they're euthanasia rate is very very low.
