Wolf Trap Animal Rescue

Additional adoption info

Adoption information and applications can be found here: https://www.wtarescue.com/adoption-process-2

If you are chosen to adopt after the Meet & Greet process (https://www.wtarescue.com/meet-and-greets), be aware that all of our pets stay in foster care for a minimum of 3 weeks, and adoption finalization and Transfer Day will take place at the end of that foster period.

What are the requirements to adopt? There are no situational requirements other than that your current pet/pets need to be up-to-date on their vaccinations, as well as spay/neutered. This demonstrates responsible pet ownership.
Adopters must submit proof of visit with a veterinarian within 14 days of adoption.
If an adopted puppy is under 4 months of age, you must be in a situation where the puppy is not left unattended for >5 hours at a time.

Do you require home visits? No. Potential adopters are screened by their application, interviews by the foster, and the requirement of a Veterinary visit within 14 days. If you do not submit proof of a veterinary health visit within 14 days of adoption, your ownership of the animal is forfeited back to Wolf Trap Animal Rescue.

How can I see pictures of the puppies available? You can view them on our website at https://www.wtarescue.com/adopt-a-dog or https://www.wtarescue.com/adopt-a-cat.

How much is the adoption fee? The current adoption fee for puppies (under 2 years old) is $525. For adult dogs (over 2 years old), the fee is $485. The adoption fee for cats/kittens is $225. Adoption fees are payable by credit card only. This fee covers the cost of spay/neuter, vaccinations, microchip, deworming, flea/tick control, transport, food, and foster supplies - and it includes 30 days of pet insurance upon immediate activation.
