Pet Adoption
Adopted pets are just as loving, intelligent, and loyal as purchased pets. Animal rescue groups have plenty of healthy, well-behaved animals simply waiting for a home. We examine, vaccinate, and spay/neuter animals when they arrive into our care. Thereafter, we screen and assess our animals for specific temperaments (“personality” characteristics) and behaviors to match pets with prospective owners. It is a common belief that animals end up in shelters or rescues because they are aggressive or poorly behaved. In truth, most animals become homeless because of “people problems”: divorce, moving, lack of time, financial constraints, etc. Accordingly, we also strive to provide support for new pet owners because keeping pets in loving homes is key following adoption.
