Additional adoption info

After filling out an adoption application, a director from the rescue reaches out to the potential adopter to ask clarifying questions in order to choose the best fit applicant for the dog. After that, we schedule a meet-and-greet with the potential adopter and their animals (if applicable) to make sure that we feel it is a good fit for both the dog and the adopter. After that, if it is deemed a good match, the adopter fills out a contract, pays the adoption fee, and take home their new best friend!
