Important notes for Dogs and Puppies
If you have a resident dog in your home, please ensure they attend the appointment with you so a dog-to-dog meet and greet can be facilitated.
All members of your residing household (including children) must meet the dog prior to adoption. Please bring along photographs or a short video of your backyard to provide staff information about the security and fencing of your backyard.
If you live in a rental property, written permission from your landlord must be provided to staff.
