Welcome to ARFLA! Thank you for considering adoption of a rescued Animal. The Animal's welfare is our foremost consideration, so this questionnaire is designed to help us determine if this adoption is in the animal's best interest and to help you find an animal most compatible with your lifestyle.

Each of our pets is examined upon arrival and is provided with ordinary, or in some cases extraordinary veterinary care. They are routinely monitored while awaiting adoption, but there is always a chance tht an animal is incubation a disease without shoing any clinical signs. Do you understand this?

Our adoption fee of $150 includes spay/neuter, if not already done, microchip, first vaccinations, for puppies or adults; routine worming and any needed medicine the animal has received in our care. If you adopt a puppy, you MUST provide vaccinations until the pet is at least six months old! After that, yearly exams and vaccinations are required.

IN THE EVENT THAT AN ADOPTION DOES NOT WORK OUT, ARFLA REQUIRES THAT ANIMAL BE RETURED SO THAT WE MAY REHOME IT.

However, 72 hours after receiving the pet, the adoption fee is considered a tax-deductable donation.
Do you understand this?

We will deliver your new pet and check out your facilites once the application procedure has been completed.
