ADOPTION PROCESS

The basic requirements for adoption from Tri-County Animal Rescue are as follows:

If you lease or rent, you must have permission from your landlord or the primary resident where you live prior to adoption. Proof such as a lease or documentation will need to be shown.
If you currently have a dog and are adopting a dog that is 4 months and older, Tri-County Animal Rescue requires you bring in your dog for an official “meet and greet.”
If you currently have a dog or cat at home, you must provide proof that he or she is current on vaccinations and sterilized.
Tri-County Animal Rescue does not authorize adoptions to be “gifts.” The person who will be considered the owner of the pet must be present and go through the adoption process.
You will be asked to complete a preliminary questionnaire prior to adoption.
You must be at least 18 years of age.
If you are at least 18 years of age but still live with your parents, the home-owners would need to fill out the application.

NOTE: Tri-County Animal Rescue reserves the right to refuse adoption to anyone for any reason. We do not hold animals, nor does the submission of the Pre-Adoption application entitle you to any particular animal.
Please do not try to adopt in a hurry. Weekends are busy and you may have to wait more than an hour (especially in the afternoons) so please be patient. We can not wait to help you find your forever pet. Thank you for wanting to adopt.
