ADOPTION APPLICATION

Date*

Date

Our animals come from a variety of situations. Some have been dumped at shelters or vets, or found literally on the street and brought to us. Therefore, many are ill or malnourished when rescued. Although the animal has been in a protected environment, there is the possibility of unrecognized illness appearing after an adoption is finalized, especially because of the stress the animal may experience during the first few days at its new home. While we advise adopters of the animal’s known history and provide its veterinary record, we cannot offer any guarantee regarding the long-term health of any animal.

(initial)*

Adopters agree to hold Texas Pawprints, the adoption venue, and all volunteers blameless and not liable for any injury, illness or behavioral problems that should be discovered now or in the future. That said, we will always attempt to work with you regarding any problems and we will always take the animal back if your situation changes.
