Adoption Process

Step 1. Find a pet. Step 2. Complete an application and email it to adopt@ral.org. Step 3. A staff member will contact you to schedule an informal phone interview to go over the information we know about the pet, discuss the needs of the pet and if the pet will be a good fit. We reserve the right to refuse an adoption at our discretion. Step 4. Meet and Greet. Step 5. You're approved! We will now walk you through the adoption finalization process. You'll sign an adoption contract and pay your adoption fee to officially transfer ownership to your family. We will arrange a time to safely transfer the pet from foster to adopter.
