Puppy Adoption Application 2023

Every week, the TSA SPCA reviews over 400,000 applications from applicants seeking to adopt a dog from our rescue. The SPCA is also required to maintain a list of dogs to screen every year for possible adoption and to keep current with veterinary practices in the area. The SPCA receives applications every week and in-person adoptions throughout the year and adopts each of these dogs only if all the necessary requirements are met. The SPCA cannot assist with questions relating specifically to the current and prospective applicants, or other circumstances not relating to the prospective adopter who is seeking a particular dog, such as a specific temperament, background, or medical condition. What if I need to make an application after I've signed a “purchase agreement” on a dog? We'll accept applications submitted up until the date of the adoption event you'd like to attend. After your “purchase agreement” is signed, you only have 30 days from the date of the adoption event, either in person or via email, to complete and return the application by that date, even if you change your mind about the dog you want to adopt. If a dog is purchased before the adoption events, and you need to make a different application, we can provide you with this copy of our original paperwork and advise you of your adoption restrictions. How do I get back copies of the documentation I provided? In the event you need a copy of other documentation for your application, such as your written permission from the prospective adopter authorizing us to obtain documentation such as a veterinarian's statement and an SPCA “purchase agreement” form and/or a copy of the SPCA “purchase agreement” to be signed by the person applying to adopt, the appropriate person must be granted access. The approval procedure is very simple to follow, and includes our copy of all necessary documentation to be included with your application. This process, while not always convenient, ensures your documentation is received safely. How do I obtain references for prospective adopters? Each person applying to adopt must provide a written permission to the SPCA (or their approved representative) to conduct the SPCA Adoption Questionnaire with this person's permission to have references for the person apply to become prospective adoptive parents from the SPCA.

Pets needing a forever family. 3) People to watch over your puppy. 4) Pets needing extra medical care. 5) Dogs needing to stay with parents. 6) Individuals that love dogs, but are not in a dog rescue or do not have a dog of their own. What happens when a person completes the application? When you complete a completed form that you will be given your choice of options to purchase the puppy or cat. You may be able to purchase the pup or purchase it as a pet for family members, friends or pets that do not meet your own criteria. You may also purchase an adopted puppy for yourself either in the current year or the future. Please note there is an adoption fee if you purchase a puppy, if you purchase the pup as a pet that you will need to pay an additional adoption fee. We are always available to answer questions regarding what happens next. Please email us.

Please be sure to complete all pet adoption application(s) before you travel in order to save precious airline time. Can I bring my dog in if it has not had a microchip/bond? It is common for pets to have a number of potential locations which they have not gone through with. While they may have never been picked up by a veterinarian (due to this being a very common occurrence), they have had the option to be “nod'd” to a veterinarian within the past week. In order to help avoid the risk of these puppies being abandoned, it may be helpful for you to make certain your new puppy has received a microchip and will likely get one within the week. What if my dog isn't a good fit? If your dog does not live up to our standards of responsible breeding, our breeders are happy to accommodate you with a short term foster program if possible. Please note that our breeders will only adopt out pups who come with us. If your dog does not fit in with our breeding program or if he is not interested in being bred (due to age or health reasons), then we will not be able to take him (or her) on. What if the puppy cannot come with me? The puppy will need a foster home who can provide a loving, stable environment for the new dog to acclimate to before the litter arrives at us. We are not responsible for the care, safety, or comfort of the new dog as he or she arrives with you; however, if that is not an option, the foster home can assist with the transition responsibly. Is there a limit on the number of puppies you will take? While we can generally handle a certain number of puppy intake requests, we do not generally accept more than 50 puppies at a time (because of the extreme time commitment our breeders, veterinary technicians, etc, require). If you have a higher number of requests and wish to add a puppy to your group, please notify us, and we can discuss whether you can make room for one additional (up to 1 pkg) pup. Will my dog need to be spayed/neutered? Yes. The American Kennel Club requires spay/neuter for all pets adopted into the U.S. We do not use artificial insemination in our breeding program or in any other location and so it would be impossible to perform such a procedure on a dog coming to us from another country.

The TSA recommends that owners visit the USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service (ISIS) website for information on current or retired pets and adoptions. In many states, including Massachusetts, pets adopted from an approved pet adoption agency may be eligible for a companion animal license in the state. Can I use a pet adoption agency to adopt a dog or cat? The USDA recommends that owners visit the USDA food safety and inspection service (ISIS) website for information on current or retired pets and adoptions. In many states, including Massachusetts, pets adopted from an approved pet adoption agency may be eligible for a companion animal license in the state. How will a rescue pet be housed? When a rescue pet is adopted, the new owner will have the pet permanently located in a specific facility to meet the needs of the new owner's household, including food and water for the cat or dog. Will a rescue-based adoption cost more? Because of the many costs involved in adopting from a rescue operation, in many situations, a pet will cost more.

After your application is processed a member of the adoption team will contact you to discuss adoption options. For some dogs that are more suited for adoption from one rescue organization or another, you may need to go into another one to apply. A dog cannot get more than one foster or adoption at a time from any one rescue. Do not use that site to apply for a dog from another organization. The site that is offering your dog will have a dog adoptable page that you can visit. You will need the name of the organization, and they can be from other country as well. When you check out, make sure to look at their pet adoption pages and click on the Adoption link. Then go to their rescue page and follow as many of their links as possible. Also check out the pet pages of the other rescues linked to your rescued dog and try to apply there as well. Many pet rescue organizations have websites and Facebook profiles. The organization's page can be your entry point to go to the rescue page of the organization that does not have a Facebook page. When I read up on a rescue I like, they give information about how to contact them from online websites. I read all this information and I want to apply to adopt their dog or puppy. What do I do with my adoption application or my adoption request or why donut the rescues respond immediately? Most rescue organizations need a minimum of 3 business days to decide to take your requests on or off their waiting list, even though they may send you an application at the same time. As an example, let us say you are reading an online website that lists all the places where a dog might be adopted in the greater Washington DC area. That list includes information about all the places that are currently on their “waiting list.” When a dog becomes available for adoption, it is on their site “Waiting List” page, and some people on the list are contacted to see if they would like to adopt the dog, and can be on the waiting list to get more dogs. There are usually a few dogs on the Waiting List, and they want to try to keep everyone on their Wait List until everyone on their List has been adopted, and they can take another dog up on the wait list. If someone on the waiting list makes an application to adopt that same dog, the person could have to wait for the rescue to fill the application and take the dog on and off the Waiting List.

You need a copy of your dog's ID for a non-government approved adoption application. If you are a current (unscheduled) traveler that is in the airport parking areas the person that takes your dog will need your photo ID. It is your responsibility to know you are attending a TSA-accredited event! If you are renting the dog during an event, he must be in the crate on arrival. If you are not renting the dog, he must be in the crate BEFORE arriving at the event; the dog will not be given a “permit”. Your dog's photo ID must be on your person. You will not be allowed to leave without seeing the dog, so please make sure to bring a photo ID (including the dog's picture. What if the dog is sick during the adoption process? It is best to bring the dog when in the airport, but we will provide the puppy so that the dog can receive care while you are away. We have the option of taking your dog to your own vet after the event, so the dog has a chance to receive treatment, at your expense, while in the airport area. How can I get my dog through security? To get your dog through security, you will need to wear a jacket inside out. You can either put the jacket on before you go through security or in the TSA checkpoint (they'll ask you to do it for this one!) If you need to pass through screening, you can either: Pull up your jacket with your right arm and push it backward, or Push your jacket down with your left arm to expose your arm. You will be asked to do this, but should be able to pass, since you are wearing a jacket inside out, but it doesn't really matter. The officer will then go through the scanner as is normal. Does TSA perform a micro-chip search?” Yes. TSA personnel will perform a visual canine search. At the discretion of TSA, a visual canine search may be conducted if the dog is uncooperative, or it has an odor that would cause concern in an inspection setting. Where can I buy dog food? We make our own dog food to ensure that we do not add any additional chemical preservatives. It is made from grass-fed organic, pasture-raised beef, and is 100% vegan.

The documents you must attach to the application are as follows: A completed Application for Adoption for Puppies under 1 year of age. Proof of current rabies vaccination. Proof of current Microchip/Hank. Proof of current microchipping, proof of current Hank scan and proof of current registration. Proof of current health insurance. Proof of recent vaccinations. A current copy of your veterinary records. A certified copy of your microchip (only when using the American Kennel Club Hank ID program). Proof of current veterinary insurance. If your application is approved, the dog(s) will be added to the existing list of dogs eligible for the program at the airport. When did TSA adopt out its first dog under the program? On Monday, December 20, 2014 through Wednesday, February 24, 2014. How much does it cost to adopt a TSA puppy under 1 year of age?

In 2012, we have seen over 3,500 applications submitted from dogs that were ready to go home at 5 months old. That's 2.2% of all dogs in foster homes at the time — enough so we could have housed every one of them. Why do you focus the majority of Puppy Adoption Services on older dogs? We focus most of our services specifically on dogs under two years old because of their age and health. We do not place puppies younger than that. Furthermore, we also focus on finding homes for older dogs, so we can give them a second chance at a great life. What is your average age of a puppy rescued? In 2012, we are on track to place close to 25,000 puppies! Our average age of a puppy is 7 months. Why do people adopt a senior dog? People often have a strong sense of responsibility to older dogs. A puppy may be a very cute puppy, but it's just not the same. Most people do not have as much money available to give a dog a second chance. The longer a dog survives the less money there is to give to buy him a new puppy. How many dogs a day are put into foster care? We see about 70 dogs a day in foster care, roughly 1,200 dogs in total. Can Puppy Adoption Programs go bankrupt? We have run all of our programs since we began in 1998 without a dollar of a single one of our own. We were not created to be a shelter; we were created to be an adoption agency. As we have expanded, we've had to make adjustments to our operations. For more information on why we can't close our doors anymore, please see our statement of reasons. Does my pet pay any adoption fees? You can help pay for the shelter to carry on their mission by paying our adoption fees. Do you cover all the health care for my pets? Foster care costs are covered by your insurance plan, but vaccinations, heartworm testing, shots, and dental care are not included. Will my pet automatically be surrendered if they are not adopted? Puppy Adoption Services does not have the ability to automatically return an animal to its original owner in the event of separation.
