Friends of DeKalb County-AL Animal Adoption Center Volunteer • Foster-Based • 501c3 Nonprofit
Organization working to help the animals of DeKalb County- AL Animal Adoption Center located in Fort Payne, AL.

See all adoptable pets here! https://www.adoptapet.com/shelter/97416 Friends of DeKalb County-AL Animal Adoption Center is made up of a small group of volunteers and not the shelter staff. Our mission is to improve visibility and increase awareness of the countless number of abandoned, homeless animals in DeKalb County, with the ultimate goal being to unite these deserving animals with the perfect

family to call their own. Whether it be by finding adopters for homeless animals, reuniting lost pets with their owners or increasing community awareness about important issues, our volunteers are dedicated to being a voice for the animals in our area that are in need. However, we can not do this alone. There are numerous ways that you can help in this effort, including volunteering, educating, donating, fostering a pet until it is adopted and sharing pictures of animals that are posted on our page. The list of ways to help is endless and can be tailored to meet whatever your needs may be. For those of you interested in making a monetary donation, please use our Facebook donate button and be sure to select Friends/Family so we don't have to pay a fee for your donation or you can send your donation via Paypal to [email protected]. Any donations are greatly appreciated and can truly save lives. The DeKalb County Animal Adoption Center in Fort Payne serves the entire county and it is imperative that you check with them if you have a missing animal from anywhere in DeKalb County. Their phone number is 256.304.0474 and they are located at 2601 Jordan Road SW, which is behind Lowe's and on the left near the county jail. If you would like details about any of the animals on our page, please contact or visit the shelter, as well. For those interested in adopting a pet, the DeKalb County Animal Adoption Center offers an affordable adoption fee upon approval of an application. For $80, an adopted animal is spayed/neutered, microchipped and given a rabies shot. In addition, you receive a free, 30-day pet insurance policy! What a deal! We are incredibly grateful for those of you who are considering adoption and for those who have already opened your hearts and homes to these precious animals. As Karen Davidson once said, "Saving one dog will not change the world, but surely for that one dog, the world will change forever."

ADOPTION FEE SPONSORED!!
It says something about the resilience of a dog's heart when they have grown up in the shelter, adopted, returned, passed over at multiple adoption events and sit day after day watching all the other dogs leave for their forever homes! Daxton, is that sweet pup! His heart is so big and his love of life so strong that through all of his sad past he remains happy, fun loving and ready to face the day! This boy is a gem! He is still a puppy, potty trained, neutered and beyond ready to settle down in a home that will appreciate his zest for adventure and appreciate his happy-go-lucky attitude! He adores people of all ages, gets along great with dogs and does good with cats too! Please help him find his forever home so he can live the life he so greatly deserves! Time to start his next chapter! Apply today!
