If for some reason, this adoption does not work to the advantage of me/my family and the animal, I agree to contact Precious Paws Humane Society and give them first option to re-acquire the animal before any further placement or euthanasia is attempted. I agree that I shall not transfer ownership of the animal unless Precious Paws Humane Society elects not to exercise this option within 5 business days of my notifying them of my wish to return the animal. If the dog/cat is returned, I understand that no refund monies shall be returned to me. I have read, understand, and agree to this statement. *

I agree

Failure to fulfill this stipulation of this application (such as, but not limited to, falsifying information, verified animal neglect/cruelty/mistreatment) will result in forfeiture of the adopted animal back to Precious Paws Humane Society. I have read, understand, and agree to this statement. *

I grant Precious Paws Humane Society of Chisholm the right to make periodic visits to the Foster's premises for the purpose of checking on the health and general welfare of the animal. If, for any reason, I am unable to provide care for the animal, I agree to return the animal to Precious Paws Humane Society of Chisholm. I shall not offer the animal for sale or give the animal to any third party without the prior written consent of Precious Paws Humane Society of Chisholm. I agree that Precious Paws Humane Society of Chisholm shall have the right of immediate possession of the animal, if, in the judgement of Precious Paws Humane Society of Chisholm, the animal is receiving inadequate care, is being improperly housed or handled. I agree to pay Precious Paws Humane Society of Chisholm the sum of $300 as liquidated damages in the event the terms of this contract are breached; this liquidated damage value does not bar Precious Paws Humane Society of Chisholm from seeking the return of the animal by judicial process or other legal means if necessary. If legal action is instituted, I agree to pay reasonable attorney's fees and court costs. An individual who has surrendered his pet to an animal shelter in the previous year is not eligible to foster/adopt an animal. No foster privileges/adoptions will be granted to individuals known to hoard/collect animals, or to those individuals convicted of/subject to legal action for animal neglect/cruelty. The animal remains the property of Precious Paws Humane Society of Chisholm until the animal has been spayed or neutered.
