We provide temporary housing for animals who have lost their owners. Please inquire about becoming a foster family. Adoption is a simple process.

We also take in animals from owners who can no longer keep them and provide adoption services. We are always in need of volunteers willing to provide short-term foster homes for those little ones who come in with no mom or are just too tiny for adoption. Interested in adopting one of our animals? Adopters can fill out an application at the shelter. Requirements: Own your own home or have landlord approval for an animal; have a fenced yard or other approved method of confinement (if adopting a dog). If you currently own dogs they must be current on rabies vaccinations and El Dorado County license. Adoption fees for dog are $120.00 plus license. Cat adoption fees are $42.00

Pumpkin and Paisley are 4 month old girls. They are looking for foster-to-adopt homes in El Dorado County. We are guessing they will be 50-60 pound adults (both parents are 50 pounds). They are very sweet, have cute short tails and have been around other dogs, cats, and kids.

Thank you Karen and Natalie for the goodies!

ADOPTED!

This handsome guy is Bear. He is a neutered male and about 7 years old. Bear is a very sweet hound mix with a bark that honestly brings so much joy to our staff. While we would miss him calling out to us... This poor guy has been here since June and deserves a comfortable place to call home.

If you think he could be a good fit for you or have questions, Call us at 530.573.7925
Or better yet, come on down and meet him!
We are open Monday-Saturday from 9:30 AM-4:30 PM
We close for lunch from 12 PM-1 PM

A generous donation was made so his adoption fee is only $30.

If you are updating your Christmas Stockings this year, we would love to use your old ones for the dogs and cats. They can be dropped off anytime 8-5 Mon-Sat.

Thank you

The shelter is full… and with some really great dogs.

If you or someone you know has been considering adding a new pet to your household, come see if any of these dogs are a good fit for you.

Some have been with us for far too long and they deserve the comfort of a home.
