To view more dogs who have been recently ADOPTED

Capital District Humane takes in dogs/cats/other animals on a weekly basis and places them for adoption in suitable homes.  Our website may not necessarily reflect all the animals available.  CDHA also keeps a list of privately owned dogs/cats needing placement.

Please call for updated lists.  If you are looking for a special type of animal that we don't currently have we'd be glad to assist you in your search...

CDHA tries to match each animal with the right person or family. We are not looking to "get rid of" animals. Decisions regarding appropriate placement of pets are made on various criteria. One of the things we will ask for is a veterinary reference or the last year or two of all your animals' medical records. If more than one person is interested in a particular pet, CDHA will make a determination regarding an adoption based on which home we think would be best for that animal.

We take adoptions very seriously. If you are considering one of our pets we will want to spend time talking with you and ask that you be patient. Adopting a pet is a long-term commitment. We're seeking quality homes for dogs with individual needs.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT AT AN ADOPTION CLINIC?

  • You will be able to meet the animals for adoption and spend time with them.
     

  • Volunteers will provide you with a pet adoption list that describes each dog.
     

  • Volunteers will talk with you about what type of dog you are looking to adopt and will try to match you with an appropriate animal. We may have you fill out an "Animal Request Form" if we don't currently have the type of animal you're seeking.
     

  • If there is a dog you're interested in adopting we will conduct an in-depth interview and will have you complete an application.
     

  • We will want to meet all the immediate members of your household: wife, husband, children.
     

  • We will review your veterinary reference or animals' medical records or will call your veterinarian to see if they will recommend you as a pet owner.
     

  • We will request doing a home visit.
     

  • You may not necessarily be able to take home a dog directly from the adoption clinic, depending on whether or not we can do a home visit or check your veterinary reference. If we have multiple applicants interested in a dog, we will review all the applications and will make a determination based on what we feel would be the most appropriate placement for that animal.
