The pet adoption counselors are trained to assist you in this process. They are pet owners themselves. Trust them to help you make the right decision - for you and your pet. This will help you to make an educated decision about the animal you choose to bring into your home. Plan ahead and make an honest evaluation of your lifestyle.
Every shelter has different policies for placing animals.
The best programs are designed to ensure that animals go to responsible owners in loving homes. Owners who are prepared to make a lifetime commitment to a pet. An important part of the process is to match lifestyle and needs of the adopter with the individual animal. The adoption process is geared to help you access and prepare for your new family member. Spending a few minutes thinking and learning about your new pet can save you long hours later if problems do arise.
