At Pack Leaders Rescue of CT, Inc., we are a dedicated volunteer-driven organization committed to providing a safe and supportive transition for dogs in need. We understand that difficult circumstances can sometimes lead owners to consider surrendering their beloved companions, and we approach these situations with compassion and respect. To ensure the well-being of all animals in our care and facilitate a smooth process, we have established the following guidelines:
1. Confirmation of Ownership: To proceed with the surrender process, we kindly require verification of full legal ownership of the dog.
2. Veterinary Health and Spay/Neuter Status: The health and safety of the dogs entrusted to us are paramount. Therefore, we require current veterinary records, including confirmation of spaying and neutering. If your dog's vaccinations or sterilization status is not up-to-date, these necessary procedures will need to be completed at your expense prior to surrender. This is the only required cost associated with entrusting your dog to our care.
3. Meet and Greet with Behavioral Assessment: For the safety and well-being of our current resident dogs and our dedicated volunteer team, a mandatory meet and greet, including a behavioral assessment, will be scheduled at our East Hartford facility. We sincerely wish we could help every dog, but unfortunately, we are unable to accept dogs exhibiting aggressive behaviors for the safety of our other animals and volunteers.
4. Owner Surrender Form: We kindly ask that you complete and sign our owner surrender digital form, which helps us gather essential information about your dog.
Once these requirements are met, a representative from Pack Leaders Rescue will be in contact to finalize the intake process. Following intake, your dog will enter our standard adoption program, where we will diligently work to find them a loving and permanent forever home.
We understand that reaching the decision to surrender your dog is often emotionally challenging. For those who wish to offer additional support to their former pet's journey with us, we gratefully welcome voluntary donations to sponsor your dog at Pack Leaders Rescue of CT, Inc. through the following secure link: http://venmo.com/plrdogtraining. Your generosity can make a significant difference in their care.
Finally, we would like to clarify that our primary focus is on assisting owners who need to rehome their own pets. If you have encountered a stray animal, we respectfully request that you contact your local animal control for appropriate assistance.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation as we work together to ensure the best possible outcome for every dog.
ANIMALS FROM OTHER SHELTERS OR RESCUES
For animals not adopted through our organization, we carefully assess each situation to determine if we can provide appropriate care within our rescue. This evaluation includes considering the animal's temperament, current vaccination status, whether they are spayed/neutered, and the availability of suitable foster homes.
ANIMALS ORIGINALLY FROM OUR RESCUE
We understand that circumstances can change, and if you are considering rehoming a dog you adopted from Pack Leaders Rescue, we are here to support you. Before making a final decision, we encourage you to explore all available options. We offer consultation with our lead behaviorist, which may provide valuable insights and strategies. Please reach out to us at Packleadersrescuect@gmail.com to discuss these possibilities.
By submitting this form, you affirm that you are the sole legal owner of the animal described herein and that no other individual holds any claim of ownership. Please understand that once the surrender process is complete, the animal will not be available for return.
