To adopt, the very first step is to fill out an application found on our website, where you can also read about our adoption process: www.wooftowndoggydaycare.com/adopt_a_dog .
OUR ADOPTION FEE IS $250 UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED
APPLICANTS MUST HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH AGGRESSION ISSUES Chief is a 3 1/2 year old purebred Westie with behavioral issues. Chief needs a special kind of person to take him in to a forever home. He has a lot of love to give, but will require an experienced, understanding and patient owner. Please do not apply if you do not have experience with aggression or if you have children. Pros: Chief loves to play with other dogs of all sizes and is great with cats. He is crate trained and knows to sit before being fed meals. He knows how to 'sit', 'shake' with both paws and 'lay down'. He loves to have his belly and ears rubbed and to play fetch. He loves the snow and walks well on leash. He only goes up and down stairs in a house when he is invited on leash. Cons: Chief is high strung and has been prescribed anxiety meds. He is afraid of new people and will bite if approached without meeting properly. He loves to sit on laps, but will growl and guard the lap against other people and dogs. He cannot be groomed without sedation. Although he does allow baths at daycare, he must be muzzled for nails and brushing. Chief is afraid of loud noises, including thunder and fireworks.
We provide as much information on each animal's history, disposition and health as we can gather. We strongly believe that honesty is the best policy. We want each of our animals to find the RIGHT home, not just ANY home. Likewise, we want you to find the pet who best matches your lifestyle and interests. You will first be required to complete our adoption application. Once received, a WT rep will contact you via phone or e-mail. If it seems you are a good fit for each other based on the info you provided, a phone interview will follow. If you are renting, we require proof that you are allowed to have a pet as well as any breed or size restrictions that may exist. If you have pets or did previously, we require your vet information and we will call them to verify that your pets are in good health, current on vaccines and spayed/neutered. We require that all pets in the home be spayed/neutered unless there are health reasons that can be verified with the vet. The final step is a home visit, where an WT volunteer comes to your home to verify your home is a safe place for an animal. It is also a time where the volunteer can answer questions and discuss safety precautions. In our Adoption Agreement, we require that every animal be spayed/neutered. This is VERY important as the overpopulation of dogs and cats in our country is a sad result of too many unplanned litters! If for any reason the match is not as perfect as we all had hoped, the dog or cat must be returned to Wooftown, not given away or turned in to a shelter. Serious fines apply to violators of the Wooftown Agreement to Adopt. So be clear about what you are signing and be prepared to abide by the contract. It is legally binding and we take it very seriously.
