  Please understand that we are unable to put animals on HOLD over the phone, you must meet the animal and visit us in person to ensure you are the right match! Please also realize, even though this website is live and updates frequently, we cannot ensure the animal is still available for adoption when you arrive at the shelter. There is a chance the animal you have an interest in may have been adopted by the time you arrive, or another party might be going through the adoption process at that present time.
