Step 1 - Do Your Research. Ask yourself if you are ready for the commitment that comes with being a pet-owner. Please do your due diligence and review our FAQs on our site prior to applying. Step 2 - The Application. Tell us all about yourself and how your adopted Waggytail would fit into your home! Applications with missing information will not be considered. Step 3 - Application Review. We review applications on a rolling basis. If the animal you applied for is still available, we will process your application with that specific Waggytail in mind. When our volunteers determine that you are a good fit, we will reach out to you over email for the next steps in the review process! Our volunteers diligently check all aspects of your application. Be prepared for us to contact your landlord, references and current veterinarian. Step 4 - Meet & Greet. Now... the moment you've been waiting for! You get the chance to meet your potential adoptee and their foster who will help you get to know all about their foster pet. All members of your household (dogs and humans) are required to attend. Step 5 - Making It Official. Ready to commit? Then you're ready for the last step, adoption finalization! You must submit a copy of the transfer agreement and adoption fees before bringing your animal home.
