Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why can’t I view your adoptable animals on the website?
   Turn your phone sideways on this page to enjoy postings of our cats and dogs!
2. What is the adoption fee and breed?
   Facebook community standards prevent us from talking fees or breed in our posts. Please send us a direct message to inquire about a specific pet.
3. Is this pet still available?
   If we post an animal with a bio, that pet is available at the time of the post. Adoptions take place in person at 1929 W. Market St. in Akron. We don’t hold pets and no appointment is needed.

   Mon-Fri 12-8pm, Sat 10am-8pm, Sun 12-6pm.

     For families with other dogs, we require a meet-and-greet with our adult dogs.
   • IF APPROVED – Dogs must leave with a collar, leash, ID tag, and dog license.
