Shelter Hope Pet Shop

OPERATING BY APPOINTMENT ONLY!

Dogs are only brought into the shop if an application to meet the dog is approved and an appointment is made.


More about our process:

STEP 1: APPLICATION
If you're interested in adopting, please fill out a rescue questionnaire. Please be thorough in your answers. We do not place dogs on a first come first serve basis, but rather to the home best suited for them.

Be ready to adopt, as adoptions can happen quickly. Only apply for dogs that every family member agrees on, and wait to submit your application until after your vacation.


STEP 2: PHONE INTERVIEW
If your application is approved, our rescue counselor will contact you for a phone interview.

Please be patient, as this process may take several days. Due to the high volume of applications, especially for popular dogs, not all applicants will be contacted. Moreover, we often interview multiple candidates before selecting the best match and scheduling an adoption appointment.


STEP 3: ADOPTION APPOINTMENT
The appointment is a meet-and-greet at our shop at the Janss Marketplace in Thousand Oaks. If you choose to adopt, the process is completed with an adoption fee and a signed contract.


Adoptions include:
- 10% off training at Zoom Room Thousand Oaks
- A free day at doggy daycare at Barks N' Rec
- A free grooming at Indiana Bones
- A free check-up with Slaton Veterinary Hospital
- A free 30 minute visit from Valley Pet Sitting
- A free collar, tag, harness & leash
As well as all the vaccines they've had thus far, the microchip, and the spay/neuter.


And most importantly, the lasting reward of saving a life and welcoming a new member into your family!
