u can find pets ready for adoption at https://www.petfinder.com/member/us/al/ozark/ozark-dale-county-humane-society-al152/ (At any given time, it is highly probable that there are pets who are in the vetting process, and so are not yet listed). Our Adoption Process: After choosing the pet you are interested in, we require an adoption application to confirm that your environment is a good fit for the pet you have chosen. When you have met and made the decision to adopt the pet, and are approved, we require an adoption contract to ensure that you will be a good caregiver. Fees: Adoption fee is $125.00 for dogs/puppies-Dogs have any known health care issues treated, are heart worm tested, are on preventative, spayed/neutered (age appropriate), have vaccinations up to date, and are micro-chipped. Adoption fee is $75.00 for cats/kittens- Cats have any known health care issues treated, and are FIV/FLEUK tested, spayed/neutered (age appropriate), have vaccinations up to date, and are micro-chipped upon request. All age-eligible pets are spayed or neutered prior to adoption availability. If the pet is too young for surgery, you will be provided a date for surgery on the adoption contract (included in adoption fee). It is MANDATORY. ~We also require a vet reference and/or home visit (or alternate applicable information). You can find our application here: https://www.odchs.org/adoption-application.html If you are thinking of adding a four-legged friend to your family, they are waiting to meet you! If you would like to join the ODCHS mission, there are several ways you can help--donate, volunteer, drop off cans for the drink can recycling program, and participate in fundraisers!

CATching UP with adopted, Mango (Huey) pt 1 of 2-- "Mango has been with us for nearly 8 months now and what a fun journey it has been! He is our comedic relief and our snuggle buddy. His momma is training him to sit, lay down, and spin — he is very food driven so he will work for it! He is still working on his furry sister — she is still less than impressed with him & chooses to ignore him for the most part. I’m sure he’ll keep trying and she’ll continue to think he’s an annoying little (but physically bigger) brother 🤷🏻‍♀️😂" --WOW!🙂 That's an A+!👩‍🏫

Week's End...Winding down while CATching UP.🤗 Good Night from adopted kitto, Tang, and all the ODCHS Crew!😘

UPDATE from adpted, Freeman & Archer (Walker)-- "These 2 are the bestest of friends. I think somehow they know they both came from the same place. Love them more and more daily." --Way to go, Dale Brothers!
