The first step in our adoption process is filling out an application on our website or a paper application at an event. Typically it takes 3-5 days to review your application.
1- Your pets are spayed or neutered!
Why? Because we need to know that you aren’t out there trying to breed more animals that are going to end up in our shelter.
2- Your current and previous pets were/are kept up to date on core vaccines (or vaccine titers).
What is considered to be the core vaccines? - Rabies, Distemper and Parvo.
What is a vaccine titer? This is a bloodwork panel your veterinarian offers that can test for a immune response to Distemper and Parvo. This is the best option for those who are conscious of not “over vaccinating”. If your pets blood has an immune response, then you don’t need another vaccine that year! If it doesn’t have a response, then you know it’s time to revaccinate.
3- Your pets are on heartworm prevention. Why? Because heartworms are terrible and deadly. We often have a front row seat to what happens when animals are infected with heartworms. We want to know that our alumni are going to be protected from that fate.
4- Make sure you complete each question on the application! Completely. If there are sections left empty, we will not consider that a complete application. Take the time. Fill it out!
Basically- we want to know that the pets we place are going into homes where they will receive regular vet care, and their health is a priority for you and your family.
And bonus points for extra love, snuggles and training classes along the way.
If you have ANY questions, please feel free to message us on Facebook! We are always happy to discuss animal husbandry.
