Staff is all incredibly sweet and clearly cares deeply for the pets they are caring for. Highly recommend anyone in the area goes and walks a dog there or even adopts from them. Happy to have been able to stop in and walk a dog!

How much does it cost to adopt a puppy?

WHS 14 | Oct 7, 2018
Sara Bianco | Oct 7, 2018

$150 is the adoption fee for most dogs. There is a discount for older dogs.

Are you a no-kill shelter?

Vicky Macabenta | Oct 7, 2018
Carmen Rae | Oct 7, 2018

From my understanding they don't just kill animals due to overpopulation or things like that. They do euthanize sick or unadoptable animals. We rescued our pit bull from them and she's been the best dog we've ever had. The facility is very clean and the animals are taken very good care of. You can tell it's a caring staff... Not to mention all the volunteers that come in everyday to walk the dogs, etc. I highly recommend adopting from them if you find an animal you love. The way I see it, you aren't saving a shelter... You're saving an animal. That's the most important part! Good luck finding your new family member!

Do they charge you to take cats that you can no longer care for

Bobby Hornsby | Oct 7, 2018
Kenneth “Nightwatch” O'Malley | Oct 7, 2018

How much is it to have 2 little dogs fixed both females

Valerie Bozman | Feb 8, 2022
Lily Macey | Feb 8, 2022

You'd have to call for a quote. It's a low-cost clinic, so it's usually significantly cheaper than most vets, but for specific cost there are variables like age of dogs, if and what sort of pre-op blood work is needed, etc. They do have some programs as well that can assist even further with cost to certain situations, so please give them a call!
