Adoption Process
There are thousands of homeless animals waiting anxiously for their furever homes. These animals have been abandoned, neglected, or forgotten, and it's up to us as a community to find these loving companions a home to last a lifetime.
The staff here at Panhandle Humane Society work tirelessly to ensure that every animal is placed in the best furever home possible. We use a program developed by the Humane Society of America called Adopters Welcome. Adopters Welcome highlights an approach to adoptions that embraces community members, encourages them to adopt, and helps them and their pets succeed. This program is endorsed by Maddie's Fund and used by many shelters. A simple questionnaire is completed and then you'll have a conversation with a Panhandle Humane Society employee who will help you find a dog or cat that is just right for you! Adoptions will not be processed 30 minutes prior to our closing time due to the amount of time it takes to complete the process.

Call or visit us today if you have any questions about our adoptable animals.
Our adoptable animals are uploaded to Adopt-a-Pet through the database we use. If you can't find the type of animal you are searching for (specific breed, age, size, color, etc.) you can easily set up an alert through Adopt-a-Pet. There are two options: a free alert, which your search will be run once a day and you will receive an email within 24 hours of having a new match. Or, you can sign up for Premium Alerts and get real time instant notifications with a new match for $10 a month. (You can cancel at any time.)
