We are also always in need of volunteers. If you are interested in being an adoption coordinator which oversee's volunteers please contact us.
We also need volunteers for house checks, transport to and from vet visits and adoptions events. For adoptions; volunteers are needed to transport and/or sit with the dog at the adoption, and must commit to two weekends a month. volunteer@apeaction.org
We are looking for adopting persons who are committing to making a difference financially and morally in the life of an animal. Contribution donations are NOT A PURCHASE PRICE NOR ADOPTION FEE but a donation freely given.
~~ Our adoption fees are $150 for seniors, $250 for adult dogs, and $300 for puppies under 1 yr of age~~~
Adoption donations help us cover the spay/neuter of your new pet, current shots, micro chipping, grooming, flea meds, food, training if needed, supplies, medical and temporary boarding of the animal.
