3. Do you own your own home? If not, please give us the name and telephone number of the homeowner/land lord. What type of home do you live in? (House, apartment, condominium, etc.) Please describe your home to us: do you have a yard if so, is it fenced? Does your family live in an urban, suburban, or rural setting? Most importantly, do you feel as though your situation is the best situation possible for the dog that you are applying for?*

4. How many hours a day will the dog be left home alone? When you are not home, where will the dog be (outside in pen, outside in yard, inside free, inside enclosed in an area, or inside in a crate)?*

5. What are the driving forces behind your decision to adopt a dog now?*

6. Why have you decided on the dog/dogs that you have applied for?*

7. If you have previously owned dogs, please tell us about then, and their current status (passed on, lost, given away, stolen, etc)*

8. Please do your best to describe the lifestyle of your family. How would this dog fit into your home, what activities do you do or do you plan on doing with your dog/dogs?*

9. Do you travel often? If so, what do you plan on doing with your dog while you travel?*

10. Who do you believe will be mostly responsible for the care of the dog?*

11. Please tell us how much training you have time to put into your dog. Do you plan on taking your dog to puppy classes or obedience? Have you previously trained dogs? What level of training are you seeking in your new dog or puppy?*

12. Will your new dog or puppy be allowed on the furniture or in beds?*

13. Where and how will the dog be exercised each day? Where would he/she sleep?*

14. How do you plan on disciplining your new dog or puppy when needed? *

16. Do you feel as though, regardless of the expense, your dog will always receive the medical care needed throughout his/her life?*

17. Are you financially able to follow our feeding requirements for the dog adopted? (We firmly believe that nutrition is what can ensure that a dog will live a long, healthy life. Accordingly, we want our dogs to be placed in homes which will prioritize their dog's health.)*
