Additional adoption info
They fill out an application. Processing can include home visits, references from vets, etc. If approved, they sign a contract outlining their responsibilities and requiring them to contact us first if they ever have to give the animal up for any reason. The fees are individually determined for each animal based on the amount spent on their care. Often the amount exceeds the amount that people can pay, so we then ask for a lower fee. I don't believe we've ever asked for more than $125 even though we have put over $500 into some of the animals.

About Happy Hearts, Inc.
The founder has been doing rescue privately for over 15 years. This county has no shelters. Animal control can hold a few animals for a short period of time and most are euthanized. There is another organization that provides spay neuter certificates. There is just such an overwhelming need here that our founder decided to incorporate and try to help more animals than she could on her own.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.
What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
