Thank you for arriving here, because it means you are considering adopting one of our homeless animals into your home. The Friends For the Dearborn Animal Shelter strive to “match” the best possible companion pet with every adopter. During this process, we ask potential adopters about their homes, lifestyles, family members, activity levels, and previous experiences with pets. This helps ensure successful placement of a pet in their new forever home.
We offer two ways to complete your application—online or simply print out the handy PDF file and bring the completed form to the shelter.
The process for adopting your pet is easy! Just follow the steps below.
We thank adoption web sites Petfinder and Adoptapet for helping us showcase our wonderful adoptables to the world… virtually. As a result, we have had people travel hundreds of miles to give one of our furry friends a forever home.
