How to adopt from HSV Animal Welfare League
Adoption Procedure The very best way to pick a pet is to come to the Adoption Center to meet available pets. If you find a pet you wish to adopt, our adoption coordinators will talk with you to help make this adoption a perfect match for you and the pet. Another benefit for visiting in person is that animals and adopters frequently have a special relationship that starts the very first time they meet. You may find the love of your life being very different than what you envisioned. The pet you will be most pleased with will be the one with the temperament that fits your personality and homelife. That frequently has absolutely nothing to do with the looks or breed of the animal. When you adopt an AWL pet, you will have an animal that has been checked by our veterinarians, spayed or neutered, given basic shots (including Rabies), a folder with the medical history and various useful information, and someone to answer any questions you might have. We will ask you to promise that, if for any reason it does not work out, that you will bring the animal back to us. We have made a financial commitment to that pet because we felt it would give someone a great deal of pleasure, therefore we made a substantial monetary and emotional commitment to the animal. The last thing we want to hear about our pet is that it has been turned over to another shelter where it could be euthanized.

Adopting a dog in Adona
Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the dog, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your dog in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.
Puppies go quickly, so if you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon. Ask how big they're expected to grow, and plan for plenty of house-training and training in the first few months.
