Adoption Center
Welcome to The Maryland SPCA’s Adoption Center!
If you are looking for a new dog, cat, puppy or kitten to add to your family, come to our adoption center. Not only will you find a friend for life, you will be helping a needy or unwanted animal who needs a new home. Our adoption staff strives to help you find the perfect match. Each year we adopt out over 3,000 animals to new homes. Our adoption center is clean and cheery and our staff is attentive and eager to help you find the right animal to adopt.

See Our Available Pets
Every day we have new animals that are up for adoption. From Dachshunds to Orange Tabbies to Black Labs to Black cats, we always have an assortment of available pets. Go to our Available Pets page to see pets currently in our adoption center. You can also view a couple of our animals through our Pet Cam.
To see videos of several of our animals, you can visit the ABC2 News website and choose Animal Profiles in the category drop-down menu of local videos. New videos are posted every two weeks. If you are interested in an animal in one of the videos, check Available Pets to see if the pet is still available for adoption.
View Info about How to Adopt, Lost & Found Animals and Re-Homing Pets
We have provided all the information you need on how to adopt a pet from us and included a lost and found resource center if heaven-forbid your pet gets lost or you find a lost animal. Also we have a special section on re-homing in case you need to find a new home for a pet you already own.
Rescue Saturdays
The Maryland SPCA supports the efforts of rescue groups and other adoption centers by occasionally hosting them at the SPCA on Saturdays from noon-3:30 p.m. The Maryland SPCA is delighted to work with and help other groups. By working collaboratively, we are able to help many more animals. If you represent a rescue group or animal care facility and you would like to participate in Rescue Saturdays, please contact Barbara, Adoption Manager, by email or phone at 410-235-8826, ext. 142. (If you need other info about adoption, please call our main number: 410-235-8826.)

Every day animals get adopted from our adoption center. They go to new, loving homes and become a member of a family. Our Alumni Tales page lets adopters share their wonderful adoption stories and lets us share them with you.
