Adoption Contract
ADOPTION - I understand that I am adopting a pet from Island Dog Rescue. If I should decide not to keep this pet for any reason, I will notify Island Dog Rescue and work with the many resources IDR has to offer for training and improving the health of my pet before returning him/her. For the first 30 days, IDR will take the pet back for any reason. After the settling-in period has ended, Island Dog Rescue has the right to refuse a return if it is because of behavioral issues due to lack of training, a lapse in veterinary care, or if IDR has lack of space for the dog. IDR must be notfied before a dog is rehomed. I understand after the settling in period, my contributions are non-refundable.

Acknowledge
REFUNDS / EXCHANGES – I understand that Island Dog Rescue only offers refunds or exchanges for verified major medical reasons only. If my veterinarian finds a major medical problem with my new pet, I may return it to Island Dog Rescue within the thirty (30) day period for a refund or exchange of the adoption fee only. Medical documentation from the veterinarian is required.
