Welcome to the Abandoned Animal Foundation Program

We are glad you would like to adopt a new pet from us. The following information is required so that we can assist you in the selection of your new pet. This form and consultation with a Abandoned Animal Foundation representative is designed to help us determine if the adoption is in the animal’s best interest, and to assist you in finding the animal most compatible with your lifestyle.

There is a adoption fee for dogs and puppies. This helps us cover the spay/neuter of your new pet, current shots & micro-chipping if funds are available at time of adoption. A home check will be required. A binding contract will be required to adopt the animal. In order to be considered as an adopter you must: Be 25 years of age or older. Have identification showing your present address. If renting, have the knowledge and consent of your landlord. Be able and willing to spend the time and money necessary to provide training, medical treatment and proper care of the pet. Completion of this application does not guarantee adoption of an Abandoned Animal Foundation pet.
