Pope Memorial Frontier Animal Shelter's adoption process

Additional adoption info

Potential adopters must visit the animals and fill out our
pre-adoption information sheet. Then, if there is a pet that you would like as a member of your family, we recommend that you take 48 hours to give us a chance to go over your information, making sure that your chosen pet is a good match for you, and to give yourself a chance to seriously consider the adoption. We hope that adoptions will be permanent and families must remember that this often means a 12-14 year commitment to the care and loving of your chosen pet. Please log onto our main page www.frontieranimalsociety.com for the adoption fee listing.

About Pope Memorial Frontier Animal Shelter

The Pope Memorial Frontier Animals Shelter is primarily a volunteer organization that has been in operation since 1993. In the past the organization was run strictly out of foster homes but now we have a wonderful shelter in
Northern Vermont. Our primary goals are to find
loving, permanent homes for pets and to help control
the pet overpopulation by having all the animals we
adopt out spayed or neutered.

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.
