Shelters are often inundated with pet surrenders, and do not want to provide a simple outlet that takes away the obligation of responsible pet ownership. Therefore, they would prefer that people try hard to find a solution before resorting to surrendering their pet to a shelter. If you must find a new home for a pet, please try posting to our adoption portal before placing the burden on the shelter. Direct adoptions work well and allow everyone to share in the accountability of their community!
No-kill shelters do wonderful work, but as a result, are often inundated with pet surrenders. In the unfortunate scenario that you have to find a new home for your pet, please read through the rehoming solution and articles on this page before contacting the shelter.

adoptions are based on who and how well you kiss up to the personnel of the shelter not what is best for the animals. It is unfortunate that there is not an agency or organization that could overhaul this shelter. Customers are kept in fear of repossession if they don't jump when told. Its very sad that the actual welfare of the animals in not top priority

karen is very good at praising herself and telling anyone at will listen how much she does and how she is not paid. She should talk about the animals as much as herself.
