ADOPTIONS

Considering Adoption?
The process is easy!

Adoption fees include all age appropriate tests, vaccines, sterilization, and a microchip. You can view all available animals here!

Apply to Adopt

If you are interested in one of our animals, please fill out an adoption application for dog or cat.  You may complete the application in person at JCAS or email the completed form to animalshelter@mijackson.org.  Please do not mail applications.  A member of our team will reach out to you regarding your application status.

 

If you are interested in a dog and already own a dog(s) and/or have children, please bring them in for a meet-and-greet to see if they will become best friends!  We reserve the right to make sure each animal has a suitable home for its individual needs.

Adoption Fees

Dogs - $300 Small Breed and Puppy / $200 Medium and Large Breeds

 

Cats

We consider owner surrender and stray cats as space allows during our business hours. There is a $30 rehoming fee per animal

 

 

Dogs

We consider owner surrender dogs during business hours. Owners relinquishing must come into the facility prior to bringing the dog(s) through the door to speak with a staff member about the reason(s) for surrendering, potential for adoptability and to fill out a profile on the dog(s) to better help the staff rehome the animal. These assessments and paperwork can take 20-60 minutes. There is a $50 rehoming fee per canine.

 

Adoption fees include all applicable tests, vaccines, sterilization and a microchip. If you are adopting a dog, you are also responsible for the applicable dog license fee
