But it is a good idea to call ahead to verify that someone will be available to help you since staffing is limited. Other times are available by calling and making arrangements with the kennel staff.
Information about adoption events will be announced on the local radio station, WROI Radio lite FM 92.1.
Our Adoption ProcessAnimals are available for adoption after the State-required stay at this facility. An adoption application must be completed. There is an adoption fee of $35.00 to $50.00 for dogs(some may have a higher fee), $45.00 for puppies(who will have their first vaccinations), and $15.00 to $20.00 for cats or kittens. Animals have been determined to be fit for adoption by the manager but are adopted as is. Animals are wormed and treated for fleas as part of housing management provided supplies are available. Any purebred animals that are surrendered with their papers will be adopted out but papers will be given to the new owners only if the animal has been spayed or neutered or after proof is presented by the new owners that the surgery has been completed.
Animals that do not work out in the new home may be returned but no fees will be refunded. Contact Fulton County Animal Control with questions at 574-893-4391
We encourage all potential adopters to give serious thought to the responsibility that comes with giving an animal a permanent long-term home. Discuss the idea with all members of the family. Animals need regular veterinarian checks after initial vaccinations and spay or neuter surgery. There is the cost of food, proper housing conditions, even if outside, license or tag fees, and knowledge of training and care.
Give careful thought to adoption if small children are in the household. Please reconsider adoption if you rent. Get landlord's approval for an animal and discuss what happens to this animal should you need to move.
For more information on animals and breeds, visit your local library, find information on Petfinders.com, Library, or contact Fulton County Animal Control by calling 574-893-4391
Management reserves the right to refuse adoption to anyone for any reason. Potential adopters must be 18 years of age or older or come with their legal guardians before adopting.
If you have given careful thought to taking on the responsibility of animal guardianship, the rewards you reap will be immeasurable. You can save a life. Please visit the Fulton County Animal Shelter.

"I looked at all the homeless Shelter animals ...the cast-offs of human
Society. I saw in their eyes love and hope, fear and dread, sadness and
betrayal. And I was angry. "God," I said, "this is terrible! Why don't you
do something?" God was silent for a moment and then He spoke softly.
"I have done something," He replied. "I created You."
