Adoption Policy
Potential adopters will complete an adoption application. The foster parent will contact the potential adopter for a phone interview. A meet and greet will be then scheduled with the family and the dog. If everyone agrees it's a match, the adopter completes the adoption contract. They take the dog and adoption packet home for a trial adoption. After one week, if they decide that it's a good fit, we deposit the adoption fee and they keep their new family member.
