Thank you for your interest in adopting a shelter pet! Did you know that shelter pets make the best pets? Just check out our adoptable animals webpage! This page gets live updates multiple times a day, so you have the most current information.
Think you’re ready to adopt, or want to meet an animal in person? No problem! First, fill out our pre-adoption application.
At any given time, we have hundreds of amazing pets here at Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League, and we encourage you to visit us to meet them! Our goal is to help you find the perfect pet, based on your personality and lifestyle.
When you visit our Adoption Center, remember to:
Once you see a pet you might be interested in adopting, an Adoption Coordinator will bring the pet to meet you and see if it’s a match. We recommend you bring your children to visit with the pets you are interested in. We may also schedule a dog visit to bring your family dog in if you are looking for an additional dog. When love strikes, simply let your Adoption Coordinator know that you would like to proceed with adoption.
Offsite Partners: Peggy Adams works with 11 PetSupermarket, 2 Petco, 2 PetSmart, and 1 Pet Supplies Plus stores across Palm Beach County to facilitate adoptions in their stores. If you are interested in meeting an animal located offsite, the store will do their best to facilitate the adoption, providing they have a store member and ample time. The store may need to schedule an appointment for the following day. Learn more about our offsite adoption partners here!
*Please note: Adoptions for animals located at Petco Legacy Place in Palm Beach Gardens are facilitated by Peggy Adams. In order to meet and adopt the animal, you will need to schedule an appointment by contacting the Offsite Adoption Manager at 561-686-6656.
Our Adoption Coordinators are trained to give you the best guidance to prepare you and your new pet for a successful transition home. When finalizing your adoption, our Adoption Coordinator will:
Adoption is a rewarding lifetime commitment. Our most successful adoptions are those who take their time in finding the right pet for their personality and lifestyle. We hope that you and your pet will be lifelong companions, but we understand that life can get in the way of even the best of plans. If you have questions, concerns, or need assistance at any point after you’ve adopted, we are here to support you.
