Their adoption process

We use a team to cover different steps in the process so that we have input from several individuals to confirm dog/puppy is a fit in the new family and we have the correct forever home.

Adoption steps

  1. Submit Application
    1. Applications are submitted and reviewed against a pet bio that is prepared by the foster. This allows for a match of the family to the pet.
  2. Interview
    1. Screening questions are completed to confirm match before meet and greet
  3. Meet the Pet
    1. Dog up for adoption, the applicant and foster meet.
  4. Home Check
    1. A virtual home visit along with 2 reference checks is done to confirm safe and suitable home (one reference is a vet if possible)
  5. Approve Application
    1. A call with the applicant and adoption team is held to finalize, and then send contract.
  6. Sign Adoption Contract
    1. Contract and addendum if needed is sent to the applicant.
  7. Pay Fee
    1. After the adoption donation and contract are received, the adoption is considered final. Then pick up the new family member and take home
