My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Nelson is a 1-2 year old Pit/Lab mix currently in our shelter in Arkansas. He is good with female dogs, but can be selective with male dogs. Nelson does not have a lot of experience around young humans, so his temperament with kids is not known. Do you think Nelson would be a good fit for you? Find us on FB or on our website at tailsoftheforgottenpaws.org to fill out an application to foster or adopt Nelson!

Their adoption process

1.
Submit Application

We do thorough legal background checks and call all references, landlords etc. Do not leave anything blank or we cannot process your app.

2.
Interview

We discuss the adoption and at this time answer any questions applicants may have

3.
Approve Application

If all checked out we then send approvals via email and adopters then can reserve with a deposit or set up a meet in greet if applicable.

4.
Sign Adoption Contract

We have a legally binding contract that must be signed before you can take your fur kid home.

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process is fairly simple as long as apps are filled out correctly and fully and all checks out. We do screen with a background check program and call vet references and personal references. If any of this is left blank we cannot and will not process applications. Meet and greets are set up after an applicant is approved. At that time if they wish to adopt then we have a legally binding contract that must be signed prior to taking pet home.
