I have checked the name bar of the pet I am interested in to make sure PENDING is not in the name. If I submit an application after PENDING is in the name bar, my application will not be processed. I understand this.
There is a $20 suggested donation in order to expedite your application. Have you submitted this donation through PayPal?
I understand that the pet I am applying for may have been acquired or surrendered from a breeder or pet store. This may have been due to age, medical condition, color, or just not the right "look" to them. We do not guarantee age or breed as we do not DNA test. DO NOT CONTINUE TO APPLY IF YOU DO NOT AGREE.
I understand that because the dog is in the southeast that there will be an additional $300 fee for each pet to be transported to the northeastern states. This is a separate fee for each pet that is in ADDITION to the posted Adoption Fee.
