Homeward Bound WV, Inc., is a unique, non-profit organization dedicated to saving dogs and cats whose lives are in jeopardy and in enriching the lives of people in Monongalia and Preston Counties.
Anyone interested in adoption must submit an online application. This includes a fully completed form with vet, landlord, and personal references. Please be advised that completing an application does not guarantee approval. We do not follow a “first-come-first-serve” policy. Our mission is to find the home that will be the best fit for each animal. If your application is approved, you will receive an email with more information and a link to pay the adoption fee. Once an adoption fee is paid, we no longer advertise that pet as available for adoption. Fees are non-refundable. Fees help offset the cost of spay/neuter, vet care, food, etc. Our adoption fee includes FVRCP vaccinations, rabies vaccination, FIV/FeLV combo test, spay/neuter, deworming, and a flea/heartworm preventative of the adopted pet. Post-adoption veterinary care is the financial responsibility of the new adopter. New pets can take anywhere from a few weeks to a few months to adjust to a new home. Please keep this in mind if you find yourself struggling through this period of transition. We are here to offer tips or advice to help you through this adjustment time. If you need to return the animal for any reason, we ask that you contact us to make arrangements. When adopting a pet, be sure you are willing to commit to a new family member who will live with you for the rest of their lifetime.
