I need to surrender my pet, can you take it?

In an effort to lower the rate of euthanasia here in our region, we first and foremost take in animals from animal control that have run out of time to be adopted.

Depending on the available space in our foster homes, which can change on a daily basis, we are on occasion able to open spots for people to surrender their pets to us.  Each animal needing to be relinquished to our shelter will need to go under a health and behavior assessment performed by our Director.  The assessments are by appointment only, and help determine your required owner surrendering fee. Each surrendering fee is based on the age, condition, and adoptability of each animal, as determined during the assessment.

We are happy to assist you with any information or resources that will help you keep your pet.  We have plenty of knowledge to share regarding:

* Proper animal socialization
* Behavior and training
* Litter box issues
* Pet allergies
* Kids and pets
* What to do if you are expecting a baby
* Basic, low-cost veterinary services

Our ultimate goal is to ensure the best future for you as well as your pet.  We want to ensure we are able to offer advice that helps you keep your promise to your pet in giving them a happy, healthy, life-long home.
