Adoption Visit Reminder

Animal viewing and Ranch tours end at 3:00 PM so our team can begin evening care and ensure all animals are settled comfortably for the night.

Thinking about adopting a dog or cat?
We highly recommend giving yourself plenty of time when visiting. When you arrive, we ask that you fill out an initial questionnaire that will help facilitate the visit.
 

Adoption FAQs

Why do animal viewing and tours end at 3:00 PM at the main Ranch?
Ending visits at 3:00 PM allows our staff to focus on evening routines and provide a calm, stress-free environment for the animals.
 

How does the adoption process work?
Our adoptions are guided by what’s best for each animal. We work to thoughtfully match people with the right dog or cat and are happy to share everything we know about each animal’s personality, history, and needs.
 

Should I bring my current dog when adopting a new dog?
Yes! We highly recommend bringing your current dog for a meet-and-greet prior to adoption to help ensure compatibility and a successful transition at home.
