Adoption Fees:
Dogs $125.00 / Cats $100 -- include shots, microchip, spay or neuter. All animals are spayed or neutered prior to adoption.
60/6/60 Adoption Program, Partnering Senior Animals with Senior Friends -- If you are 60 or older and adopt an animal who is 6 or older, you'll get 60% off the adoption fee!
Adoption Process:
Our adoption process is designed to ensure the best match for both you and your new pet. You must be at least 21 years old to adopt a pet. We ask that everyone in the household come to meet the pet and we require proof that you can have a pet where you live. This can be a copy of a lease indicating that you may have a cat or dog, or any document indicating home ownership such as a mortgage statement.
There is a simple adoption application to complete that will help us advise and prepare you for your new pet. If you are adopting a dog and have another dog already, we ask that you bring your dog/dogs to meet the dog you would like to adopt. We offer home adoption counseling visits for any of our dogs and may require it for some dogs.
In the event that more than one interested party wants to adopt an animal on the morning it becomes available, we enter the names of qualified adopters into a random drawing.
BAD RAP Training Bonus:
As an added bonus, when you adopt a blocky-headed dog through BACS, you can attend BAD RAP's weekly training classes for FREE (normal fee $100). These classes are extremely popular and can have a 6+ month waiting list. But, when you adopt from us, you get to skip the wait and start attending classes right away. You won't find this incredible opportunity through any other shelter. You can read more about BAD RAP on their website: http://badrap.org
