Adoption Process

1. Find your new best friend. View our adoptable dogs and cats on our website and plan a visit to our Adoption Center to meet them. Once you fall in love, the rest is easy! Please Note: Filling an application does not automatically put the selected animal on hold. In order to place a particular animal on hold for adoption, you must come to meet the animal in person at North Country Animal League, alongside filling an application form. Applications are processed in the order in which they are received. Applications submitted on weekends may not be processed until the following week. We sincerely thank you for your patience and understanding during your wait to find your next best friend! 2. Fill out an Adoption Application. Completing an adoption application/questionnaire is the first step in the adoption process. Each application requires two (2) personal references (friends, neighbors and co-workers), your vet’s name and contact information, and either proof of home ownership or a signed copy of our Landlord consent form. Adopters must be at least 18 years old to adopt a dog or cat. Once complete, your application could take up to 2 business days (T,W,H,F,Sa) to process. Please note: Our adoption center is closed on Sundays and Mondays. If you submit an application on Saturday, you can expect to hear back from us on Tuesday the following week. You will be asked for a $50 adoption deposit, to be charged at the time the application is submitted, for holding the animal during the time it takes to process your application and schedule the adoption, if application is approved. This deposit will be discounted from the adoption fee if adoption takes place. If an application is denied by NCAL the $50 deposit will be refunded. After the adoption application has been approved, applicants will be notified by NCAL staff and will have one full business day after they are notified to adopt that animal. If the applicant cannot pick the animal up within the allotted time frame, the animal will come off hold. Applicants that are second in line for an animal will be notified at NCAL’s earliest convenience if the animal is available to them. The same process (above) will begin once the second applicant is notified. 3.
