Congratulations on your decision to adopt! Chesapeake Humane Society
works closely with Chesapeake
Animal Control to promote adoption. Chesapeake Animal Control has
many different types of cats, dogs, bunnies, ferrets and other pets
available who are waiting to find loving homes.
Step
1: Determine the pet that is
best for your lifestyle.
Browse through the helpful topics at the right and determine what type
of pet will be most compatible with your family. Since your new pet
will be with you for the rest of its life, this is an important commitment
that should not be rushed into!
Step 2: Review Chesapeake Animal Control's adoption policies
and requirements.
All adoptions require identification that displays your current address.
Renters must also provide verification that pets are permitted in their
home. Click here
to read the full list of policies.
Step 3: Select your pet and complete adoption paperwork.
All adoptable animals are available to be seen at Chesapeake
Animal Control or on Petfinder.
Once you select your pet, Chesapeake Animal Control will process your
adoption.
Step 4: Have your pet spayed or neutered.
The Chesapeake Humane Society sponsors pets adopted from Chesapeake
Animal Control with a free spay/neuter surgery and microchip! (Adopters
may use a different vet to fulfill the spay/neuter requirement; however,
adopters will assume full financial responsibility for the surgery and
will not be eligible for the microchip offered by the Chesapeake Humane
Society.)

Adoptions are $40 for dogs and cats. The adoption package includes
first vaccines, worming, heartworm or FeLV/FIV test (in most cases),
flea treatment (when available), a leash or carrier, coupons, food
samples, and either a spay/neuter package from The Chesapeake Humane
Society or a $20 refund if the adopter chooses to use their own
veterinarian for spay/neuter surgery. The price and adoption package
varies for other types of pets.
