Adopt
| Welcome Adopting from Frontier Potential adopters must visit the animals and fill out our pre-adoption information sheet. Then, if there is a pet that you would like as a member of your family, we recommend that you take 48 hours to give us a chance to go over your information, making sure that your chosen pet is a good match for you, and to give yourself a chance to seriously consider the adoption. We hope that adoptions will be permanent and families must remember that this often means a 12-14 year commitment to the care and loving of your chosen pet. Adoption Fees: Dog (ALTERED) $125 Puppy (NOT ALTERED) $200** Cat (ALTERED) $70/$110 for 2 $150 for 3 Kitten (NOT ALTERED) $100** **Most animals are neutered when 4-6 months of age while they are at the shelter. All animals too small or young to be neutered go home with a voucher for their Spay/Neuter Surgery at a local vet. The extra fee at the time of adoption includes a $50(dog) or $30 (cat) deposit that is refunded when you have your new pet altered. SENIOR DISCOUNTS: Felines that are 6yrs old and older have a fee of $35. Canines that are 8yrs old and older have a fee of $75. If you are a senior considering a senior pet the fees are: $25 cat & $50 dog.

I was there on the day that he arrived at the
shelter. He was old, thin, his coat was dull and
the muscles in his hind end had atrophied.
Those big brown eyes held a depth that I didn't
see every day. I fell in love immediately. I asked
for his story and was told that his previous owners
had left him tied to the porch and then moved
away. We expected that it would be nearly
impossible to find his forever home. [read more]

I first met Quarter, and his daughter Sasha, last
March. Emaciated beyond belief, they were the
most pathetic dogs I had yet encountered at Fer.
I could visually count every rib and clearly see
their hip bones - it was awful. These dogs were
so terrible looking, I had some serious doubts
about their health/survival, much less the
adoption chances for two such sad and
desperate animals. As I walked up to Quarters
kennel, my eyes welled up with tears [read more]

After spending days on "petfinder.com"
searching for the perfect dog match, I was about
to give up when I saw Patches. A part
Dalmatian, part something else mix. Her
pictures showed her as mostly black with a
polka dotted under-belly; her face: half salt and
pepper, the other half black; her white tail,
striped with rings of black. One ear fell to the
front, while the other stuck out to the side. She
was a funny looking dog, but for some reason I
felt compelled to e-mail my application
immediately. [read more]
