PAWS FOR LIFE ANNOUNCEMENT: Starting next week January 31st we will be open by appointment Tuesday- Friday 12-5 and we will be open to the public without an appointment on Saturdays from 10-1. To make an appointment we would like that you fill out an adoption application through our website under available dogs or available cats. We have been having a few issues with our adoptions being paid for so we’ve decided to try something new. If it works out we will continue this way in the future if not we will return to being open without an appointment.
If you are needing to get a city license or to reclaim an impounded animal please call us and you can come down and get that all settled. If you have any other questions please call us and we will try to answer them to the best of our ability. Visit PAWS For Life on Facebook: 
facebook.com/PawsRiverton or via website pawsforliferiverton.org

THE CITY OF RIVERTON HAS A NEW ONLINE PERMIT PORTAL!  Contractors and business owners can submit for Building Permits, schedule inspections, and upload documents and progress pictures for a project. This is an added convenience to help anyone out with their ongoing construction/building projects. The Permit Portal is a good point of reference for a lot of our permitting requirements and information. We cannot take payment through this portal at this time, but we do have several payment options, once the permit is approved; please contact our office for further information. If you would prefer obtain your building permits in person, we are happy to assist you during normal business hours.

If you are thinking of adopting please make sure you can accommodate the animal.

Adopting any animal requires commitment and long term care.

If you become unable to care for an animal you have adopted from us, please make sure to call us before you bring in the animal back because we do not always have room to take them back in.

Keep the critters in mind and what’s best for them.

Thank you!

All impounds are held for 5 days and then put up for adoption.
