Additional adoption info

Prior to adoption, all animals are up to date on vaccinations and tests, and are spay/neutered, age dependent. Anderson County Animal Rescue Foundation also facilitates adoptions for animals available through other animal rescues and shelters we work with. Each has their own adoption process and forms, but all are similar.
