Abandoned Pet Project Rescue's adoption process

Additional adoption info

Interested adopter fills out an application online.

Adoption team reviews application, completes vet and landlord checks.

Adoption team will notify applicant if they are approved or declined, or if we need to redirect to a pet that is a better fit for the applicant or if the pet they applied for has other applicants in front of them.

If approved, adoption team will send an email connecting foster parent to adopter. We ask that the applicant and foster parent make initial contact within 48 hours of the meet & greet email going out.

If it seems like a fit over the phone then foster parents and potential adopter will set up a home visit.

After meet and greet, the foster and potential adopter will let the adoption team know how they would each like to proceed.

Note: We do not do onsite adoptions. Foster pets will return to the foster home after the meet and greet is complete, even if both parties want to move forward with adoption.

If a fit for both parties, the adoption team will send the adopter a link for adoption fee payment and an adoption contract.

Adoption team will let foster know once the adoption is complete and you are then free to coordinate handoff!

Adopt a Pet is the easiest way for you to search for a new pet in Dallas, TX.

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.
