Additional adoption info

Answers to Frequently Asked Questions: *If you have not already done so, please complete and return the adoption application. Email buffaloshelter@gmail.com for a link to the application. This will be the first step in the adoption process. Your approved application will remain on file for one year. * Dog adoptions are approximately $185 and include vaccines, spay/neuter surgery, microchip and food. * Cat adoptions are $110 and include vaccines, spay/neuter surgery, microchip and food * It is very hard to tell whether our adoptable dogs will be fully housetrained, unless they are currently living in a foster home. A transition period is always expected as your new companion learns the proper ways of your home. * We encourage you to bring any children in your home along when you come to meet your new companion, to get the best understanding of how everyone will get along. A meeting with any current dogs and the adoptable dog is required prior to adoption.
