Pre-Adoption Resource

Dog Adoption Orientation

Learn more about adoptions and prepare for your new dog!

Join us for a free orientation session designed to set you and your new dog up for success.

This orientation is completely optional and not required to adopt. It is offered purely as a resource for prospective adopters who want guidance and extra preparation before bringing a dog home.

We’ll walk you through what to expect when you bring a dog home for the first time, from the adjustment period to daily routines, so you feel confident and prepared on adoption day. We’ll cover common behaviors, feeding, exercise, and basic training tips, as well as a list of supplies to gather before you come in so your home is ready the moment your dog walks through the door.

Plus, all attendees will receive a $50 coupon toward their next dog adoption at ACC. Spots are limited, so register in advance to secure your place.
