Adoption Information
More than 200 animals of all different sizes, breeds, colors, ages and personalities are cared for daily at the Humane Society of El Paso. All animals are placed in clean cages with identification cards stating the breed, age, sex, disposition, shots received, and history of the animal.
All adoptable animals receive their age appropriate vaccinations. Dogs over a year old are heartworm tested. Cats over six weeks are tested for feline leukemia. All pets adopted from the Humane Society will be microchipped and spayed or neutered before leaving the shelter. A pet care package which includes a pet care booklet and coupons from Pets Barn are given to the adopter.
Adoption Fees
