Our Adoption Fees

What Your Adoption Includes

-
All Age-Appropriate Vaccinations – A $250 Value
-
A Spay/Neuter Surgery Appointment* – A $300 Value
-
Microchipping – A $75 Value

*Due to a state-wide veterinary access shortage, Roice-Hurst Humane Society is currently operating under a PACFA exemption allowing unaltered pets to be adopted by their new families while waiting for their spay/neuter appointment. For pets adopted unaltered, Roice-Hurst Humane Society pays for one mandatory spay/neuter appointment for the pet. If this appointment is missed without notice, the adopter is responsible for the cost of the new surgery appointment. This policy exists because in most cases, Roice-Hurst still incurs the cost of surgery whether or not the pet makes it to the appointment. If you have questions about this policy, please call 970-434-7337 ext. 102.

A Mesa County Dog License must also be purchased with a dog adoption if the adopter resides within Mesa County. The fee for a 1-year license is $10 and the fee for a 3-year license is $25. The license you purchase is dependent upon whether the dog has a 1- or 3-year rabies vaccination.

Adult Cats (ages 6 months to 9 years old) – $100
