Visit our Malone Center Shelter in Denver, or Buddy Center Shelter in Castle Rock to check out our adoptable pets in person.

At the shelter, when you’re ready to adopt or have identified a pet you want to meet, follow the signage to join our virtual queue. You’ll be added to the line, on a first come first served basis, to visit with a counselor and meet your new best friend.

In order to best serve you, please sign in at least one hour prior to closing to visit with a counselor. Our queue may be closed at other times if we have met our capacity for daily visits.

We offer appointments at the Leslie A. Malone Center

NOTE: We only book appointments on weekdays and one day from today’s date. If the calendar doesn’t show any available appointments, please check this page the next day as more appointment times become available. We do not have additional capacity beyond the appointment times listed on the calendar, so there is no need to call us.
