San Marcos Regional Animal Shelter's Adoption Policy

Please scroll through our fantastic selection of available pets. When you find one you are interested in, fill out an Adoption Questionnaire immediately. The Shelter Staff will receive an electronic copy of your survey and keep it on file until you come in to the shelter to interact with the pet. Filling out the adoption questionnaire is the first step, you do not have to wait for someone to contact you regarding your interest in the animal - we are first come first serve and interested persons must come to the shelter during business hours to interact with the dog or cat of interest. Speak to an Adoption Counselor at our Adoption Center regarding your interest to adopt and they will advise you of the Hold and Adoption process. Currently, animals will be ready for pick up within 24 to 48 hours of the completion of required adoption documents. All pets adopted from our facility are micro-chipped, spayed or neutered and vaccinated for Rabies prior to being released to the adopter. This is required by Texas State Law for any animal adopted from an animal shelter or rescue group. We do allow out of area adoptions as long as the selected pet is old enough to receive these services prior to being released to the adopter.
