Consider Keeping Your Pet

While rehoming may be a necessary choice in certain circumstances, taking the time to consider keeping your pet can lead to a stronger and more enduring bond. Our team at Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League is here to provide guidance, resources, and support as you navigate this important decision.

Surrendering Your Pet to Peggy Adams?

We understand that it is sometimes necessary to surrender a pet due to personal reasons. Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League accepts dogs and cats from Palm Beach County by appointment only. We are not able to care for exotic pets, livestock, reptiles or wild animals. We are a limited admissions shelter that can only accept as many animals as we can humanely house and care for.

In order to find loving homes for the pets in our care, the first step having a conversation about your pet’s personality, health and temperament.

While we do our best to place every animal that comes in to our care, we cannot guarantee placement for any animal. While it is always a last resort, we will humanely euthanize an animal if deemed medically or behaviorally necessary.

Step 1

Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League is a non-profit organization that relies on the support of the public to fund our efforts. We ask for a $50 non-refundable care fee per pet/litter for animals being rehomed by their owners at the time of the appointment. This fee will go towards the cost of your pet's care.

Step 2

Clients bringing in found pets are encouraged to make a donation for the same amount to help us cover the cost of care.

Step 3

Did your pet have a litter that you can’t keep? Through our Last Litter Program, we’ll waive the $50 care fee for the litter while providing mom and/or dad with a FREE spay/neuter surgery. We’ll find new homes for the puppies or kittens, and mom/dad will return home without having to worry about future unplanned pregnancies! Make an appointment here.
