Adoption
Adoption Applications can be found in Shelter Forms. Adopting a friend: In order to adopt a cat or a dog from ASSV you must first fill out an adoption form (click here). The applicant must be at least 21 years of age in order to adopt a cat or a dog. If the applicant rents property we must speak to the landlord by telephone, or the renter can provide us with a lease agreement. We do not operate on a “first-come first-served” basis, but evaluate all applicants and decide what is best for the pets we rescue based on the needs of the dog/cat. This is not meant to discourage adopters in any way, but simply to help them understand that we must make the tough decisions about where our pets go.

We now have senior pet adoption pricing: Senior adopters 65 and over get dogs that are 3 or older and cats that are 5 and older for half the above prices, so adult dogs would be $75 and cats would be $35. Senior pets – Any dog over 7 years of age is half price adoption fee. Any cat over 6 yrs of age is half price adoption fee. We are doing this so senior adopters who may be on fixed incomes can have the pet they want. Seniors are great pet owners and take wonderful care of their animals. |
