ADOPTIONS:

Our Adoptions are on a First Come, First Serve basis and we are not allowed to place holds on any animal. The fee is $60.00 (cash only and you must have proper I.D.) The fee includes; spay or neutering, first set of shots, and de-worming which is done prior to you receiving your new pet.
