Adoption Policies:

For Dogs:

To ensure placement into a home best suited to each individual dog, the application process includes having applicants complete our Pre-Adoption Application form, on which we ask for some general information, including two references and a veterinary reference, where applicable.

An adoption counselor will process the application, and contact the applicant to discuss any questions or considerations either party may have.

If the adoption seems to be a good fit, a brief home visit will be scheduled.

If the applicant rents, a written consent must be submitted by the landlord stating that a dog such as the one being considered will be allowed residence in the building.

If more than one application is received for a particular dog at any given time, the applicants will be notified, and the adoption counselors, upon processing these applications, will make a decision, in the dog's best interest, as to the adoptive home.
