Press release from the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office:

The Humboldt County Animal Shelter is offering reduced-rate adoptions for dogs through May 26, 2023.

Due to the shelter’s dog kennels being over capacity, adoption fees for dogs are temporarily being reduced to $50 for adult dogs, $80 for puppies six-months-old or younger, and $35 for senior dogs seven-years-old or older. Cats remain at their regular adoption price.

Adoptable dogs are neutered or spayed, microchipped, up to date on shots and temperament tested.

The animal shelter’s currently available, adoptable pets are listed online and updated daily at 24petconnect.com. To view adoptable pets at the shelter, use the website’s filter with the shelter’s zip code, 95519. Adoptions are appointment-only, and you must have an approved application on file. Download and complete an adoption application at: HumboldtSheriff.org/Adopt.

The Humboldt County Animal Shelter is located at 980 Lycoming Ave in McKinleyville. To learn more about the Humboldt County Animal Shelter and the adoption process, visit HumboldtSheriff.org/Adopt or call (707) 840-9132.
