DFW Pup Patrol Rescue

Adoption process

The adoption process begins with a screening application, followed by reference checks and a phone interview. If a potential match is identified, a play date is scheduled. Should we decide to proceed, a home visit will be conducted to ensure the new pet is properly introduced to any existing pets. If this introduction is successful, a mandatory trial placement of 72 hours will take place. To finalize the adoption, the prospective adopter must complete a contract, initial the adoption requirement statements, sign and date the document, and provide a check for the adoption fee. Both the contract and the check will be held for the duration of the trial period. At the end of the 72-hour trial, if both the organization and the potential adopter agree on the placement, the organization will sign and execute the contract, providing a copy along with the pet's medical records to the approved adopter. Follow-up communications will occur at one week, one month, three months, and six months after the adoption.
