Dogs name I’m interested in adopting: *
Commitment to care and responsibility *
Please acknowledge that you understand the following commitments regarding dog adoption:

I understand that adopting a dog is a lifelong commitment and that I am responsible for providing proper care, training, exercise, routine veterinary care, food, shelter, and a safe and loving home for the lifetime of the dog. I understand that dogs require patience, time, financial responsibility, structure, and understanding as they adjust to a new environment and may need time to decompress. I understand there may be unexpected medical expenses that require continued care and commitment. I agree to give the dog the care, stability, and attention they deserve and understand adoption should not be taken lightly or viewed as temporary.
Required
Understanding of the dog's past trauma *
I understand that the dog I am applying for has been through a traumatic event and will need time to adjust to a new home, new people, and a new environment. I understand the dog may be scared, nervous, freeze, hide, or bark out of fear at first until trust, comfort, and a sense of safety are established. I understand patience, structure, and allowing the dog to decompress are important during this transition period.
