Our Adoption Process
We believe everyone deserves to experience the love and benefits of the human-animal bond, and we welcome adopters of all ages and backgrounds.
We’re here to help guide you in choosing a wonderful companion, introducing them to your home, and training and caring for your pet. All dogs, cats, and rabbits are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.
Meet your best friend
Explore our available pets online. Ready for a meet and greet? To provide the best adoption experience for people and pets, we offer adoptions by appointment and walk-in adoption hours from 12 p.m.–7 p.m. Tuesday–Sunday. If you’d like to save time and enjoy our full-service experience, you can make an appointment; when your appointment is confirmed, you’ll be asked to complete this short questionnaire so that we can be most helpful to you.
On the day of your appointment, an adoption counselor will provide more information on the animals you are interested in and answer any questions you may have. Animals can go home the same day they are adopted, so plan on making any necessary preparations in advance—and know that we do have some basic supplies available.
Thank you for choosing to adopt at All Paws—we can’t wait to meet you, and help you meet your new pet!
About our adoption fees
Years of research at shelters across the country have debunked the myth that adoption fees are needed to ensure loving, committed homes for pets. We let you decide what amount you’d like to contribute for your pet’s adoption. Bottom line: fees will never be a barrier between you and your friend.
