Additional adoption info

Adoption applications are taken on a "first come, first served" basis. Although, we will only approve applications that meet our Adoption Requirements and are most suitable for that particular pet. RAS encourages potential adopters to bring their dog(s) to meet the dog you're interested in adopting! You can bring them the first visit, or schedule a meet & greet after you've met the pet yourself.
