Clear The Shelters
We're teaming up with WMTV 15 to host the Clear the Shelters pet adoption event.

Adoptions at DCHS are first come, first served — and animals often find homes fast! If you’re interested in a specific animal, don’t wait — come adopt them as soon as you can!
Prior to arriving at the shelter, we encourage potential adopters to:
- Watch our Adoption Process video to learn what to expect when you adopt from DCHS.
- Check out the animals available for adoption on our website.
- Have a couple animals in mind to meet with in case the pet you were interested in is adopted before it’s your turn.
Upon arrival, potential adopters should inform our Adoption staff of who they're interested in meeting so they can be added to that day's waitlist.
Adopters should bring leashes, carries, and any other supplies needed to bring a pet home that day. The Adoption Center does have these items available for purchase for those who need them.
Adopters who qualify for Pets for the Elderly can still use the up to $50 credit during the event.
