Our pets come from a variety of sources. Each is examined upon arrival and is provided with ordinary, or in some cases, extraordinary veterinary care. They are routinely monitored while awaiting adoption, but there is always a chance that an animal is incubating a disease without showing any clinical signs. Do you understand this?

YES    NO

All dogs must be kept indoors. When allowed outdoors, they must be in a secured, fenced yard or on a leash. No exceptions. Do you understand this?

In the event that an adoption does not work out, we will accept any returned animal for any reason. However, three(3) days after receiving the pet, your adoption fee becomes non-refundable for any reason. However, some circumstances will be reviewed. Do you understand this?
