Adoption Policy

You can find the information about adopting a dog or a cat from Responsible Pet Care on our website www.responsiblepetcare.org. You will also find the adoption fees and what is included with the fee.

To be qualified to adopt a puppy or dog from RPC you must agree to provide training and keep the animal under control at all times. Dogs should not be allowed to roam freely.

You must not have ever surrendered a dog to a shelter.

An approved application is required before an animal is released. The application includes the following:

Personal information: name, address, phone number, etc.
Landlord's permission, if you rent your home
Information about pets in your home. All dogs and cats must be current with their rabies and distemper vaccinations
Name and phone number of the veterinarian that treats your pets
Two non-family references with daytime phones numbers

The information on the application will be verified before approval is given. There could be a 24-48 hours wait if references or the veterinarian cannot be reached immediately. Notification is made by phone when an application has been approved.

To avoid delays print clearly, complete all the required information, submit your application for pre-approval.

Responsible Pet Care reserves the right to deny any applicant that does not meet the adoption requirements, or is perceived to be a threat to the health and well being of our animals.
