WOOF Animal Rescue is a 100% volunteer-based non-profit organization dedicated to rescuing animals in Northern California. With the help of our volunteers, WOOF has rescued numerous dogs from high-kill shelters, trained them as necessary and found wonderful forever homes for them.
The Adoption Process: 1. Applicant fills out an application for a rescue animal. 2. Application is reviewed by WOOF Volunteers and the rescue's foster parent. 3. If Application is accepted, the applicant is contacted. 4. If Applicant is still interested, a meet-n-greet is set up. 5. If meet-n-greet is successful, a home visit is scheduled to verify that the home is suitable for the rescue animal. 6. If home visit is successful, the rescue animal is dropped off at their new forever home and the adoption fee / contract are collected.
