The Pet Adoption Program seeks to bring deserving dogs and cats together with loving responsible owners while reducing the number of animals needlessly destroyed each year due to unavailable homes. We hope your visit to our site will both inform and encourage you to visit one of our two shelters and give that "special" dog or cat a place in your heart and home.
The Adoption Program is easy and requires prospective owners to visit the shelters to view the animals available for adoption. Once you have made your selection, there are some basic requirements set forth by law, which must be followed prior to your new friend's going home with you. As required by Texas State Law, all dogs and cats adopted from an animal shelter must be sterilized. This service is included as part of the adoption fees and is a mandatory part of the adoption process.

Adoption Fees

Cats : $ 55.00 (plus $7.00 if animal is vaccinated for rabies and owner is a Dallas resident)

Dogs: $85.00 (plus $7.00 if animal is vaccinated for rabies and owner is a Dallas resident) 

Fees may be paid by Visa, Mastercard, debit cards, cash or check or money order made out to the "City of Dallas."
All dogs and cats vaccinated against rabies must be registered with the City of Dallas (if a Dallas Resident) as required by City Ordinance.
We always have a wonderful selection of dogs and cats available at each facility and look forward to helping you bring the joy of a new pet into your life.
