Who We Are

We are an "adoption guarantee" animal shelter of adoptable pets in Porter County, Indiana. We have an "adoption guarantee" policy for adoptable animals and we are always looking for reputable rescue groups to help us place our adoptable animals. We strive to maintain a healthy, safe, and comfortable atmosphere for any animal entering into our shelter, and we always do our best to find loving homes for all adoptable animals, whether it is a forever-home or a rescue organization.
"Un-adoptable": Any animal that is suffering from a terminal illness; any animal that is very aggressive
and likely to hurt itself, or a human, regardless of how much it is worked with.
