Adoption Process

To ensure that WHS animals and adopters are properly matched, we have a few adoption guidelines. 1. Each potential adopter will complete an Adopter Profile that will be reviewed by an adoption counselor and will stay on file for 2 months. 2. A Photo ID with current address will be requested by the adoption counselor. If address does not match, please bring in proof of current address (ex. Utility bill or other bills). 3. The adoption counselor will ask questions regarding your residence, family members living in the household and other animals living in the home to ensure the best match is made.
