WHO WE ARE
We are an animal adoption center located in Crown Point, Indiana under the direction of the Lake County Sheriff's Department. Since taking over the shelter in October 2003, Sheriff Roy Dominguez has reversed what was once a 97% euthanasia rate to the present 98.69% adoption rate. We are a no-kill, anti-euthanasia facility of adoptable pets. We also send pets to rescues when our facility is over crowded. We not only strive to maintain a healthy, safe and comfortable atmosphere for any animal that stays in our facility, but we also do our best to find good, loving homes for all our animals.
98.69% Adoption Rate "We are a no-kill facility of adoptable pets!" We take in over 1500 animals annually and place 1480 of these animals in HOMES or RESCUES

VOLUNTEERS
Our shelter actively uses and recruits volunteers to assist in the everyday functions of the shelter. Volunteers can walk dogs, play with cats, wash food bowls, unfold newspaper or wash laundry. At our shelter, volunteers choose to what capacity they want to serve. If you are interested in becoming a volunteer you must fill out an application, and submit to a background check.
