Reminder: The San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors has allocated $30,000 to cover pet adoption fees through June 30, 2027, or while funds last.
This funding helps remove financial barriers to adoption, giving approximately 1,700 pets the opportunity to find loving homes and easing the strain on local shelters. Open your heart and your home to a furry companion today!
When you adopt a qualifying pet from Big Bear or Devore Animal Shelters, each qualifying adoption includes spaying or neutering, a microchip, and age-appropriate vaccinations. Additionally, all felines and canines are microchipped free of charge, thanks to the generous donations from the Animals aRe First Fund (ARFF). Our meet-and-greet areas provide the opportunity to interact with our pets and find the perfect match for you and your family.
Present, past, and future adopters from San Bernardino County Animal Shelters qualify for MetLife pet insurance—learn more at Animals aRe First Fund (ARFF).
* Adoption fees are waived for Veterans and for Seniors over the age of 65 for qualifying pets. If you are a Veteran, please bring a valid driver’s license or any type of identification with the word “VETERAN” printed on it.
