Welcome To Our Pets

Below are the available cats and dogs we have in the shelter or in foster homes.


ADOPTION INFORMATION:

Applications can be filled out online or pick one up at shelter. IF YOU HAVE A VET, LET THEM KNOW THAT WE WILL BE CALLING OR THEY WILL NOT SPEAK WITH US!! Let your personal references know that we will be calling them also. As soon as it's processed,  generally under 1 week depending on references, we'll call you to set up a time to meet our animals.  All family members must be present at the meet and greet.  If you have a dog/dogs and are looking to adopt a dog, please have your dog/dogs at the meet and greet!! **We do not hold animals.  Submitting an application does not guarantee that the pet you are applying for will be available**   

ELECTRONIC APPLICATION

Please only apply if you are interested in a specific animal, thank you.

Take me there


At Dessin, we take each adoption seriously. We make every effort to ensure that the match between the animal and your family is one that will bring happiness to everyone involved.   


  • Spay and Neuter: No pet leaves our shelter without being spayed or neutered -- even kittens and puppies as young as 8 weeks old.  By spaying and neutering our adoptees, we are making ourselves  a part of the solution to the pet overpopulation problem.  
  • Ten Point Behavioral Assessment: A formal, ten point behavioral assessment is conducted on each dog. It helps to identify aggression or behavior problems, as well as to learn about the dog's personality. This will help us determine what the best type of home would be for each particular dog/puppy, in order to create a successful match. 
  • ​Health Care Program:  All animals surrendered to our shelter are started  on a vaccination, flea, mite and deworming program.  Cats and kittens are tested for Feline Leukemia.  Dogs are tested for Heartworm. All animals receive a Rabies vaccination.
  •  Microchips: Our pets also go out the door microchipped (registration is included in the adoption fee.)

Our adoption fees include those services which ensure the health and safety of your new pet.

Puppy-$250
