Helping Hands Rescue

Consider these factors before adopting a pet. • Housing Restrictions • Other Household Members • Other Pets in the Home • Cost of Pet Supplies Needed • Cost of Medical Needs for Pet • Time Commitment • Must be 21 Years or Older to Adopt Adoption Process Because we are the voice for the displaced animals we rescue, we take our adoption process seriously. We do our best to ensure the animal and potential adopter will be a good fit together so the animal will have a successful adoption and thrive in its new home. Our process is as follows: 1. Finding your new pet – Browse our website, FB page, or PetFinder for a dog or cat you are interested in. 2. Complete and return the HHR application to us for that specific animal. 3. We recommend you meet the animal in person by going to one of our adoption events or make arrangements for a private meet and greet. 4. Once the application is received, HHR will review it to make sure the animal is a good fit with you and your lifestyle. Sometimes we receive multiple applications on a single animal, so it may take a little longer to review them all. Please remember that it's not always the first application, but the best fit for the animal. 5. Sometimes a home visit is necessary before our staff makes an adoption decision. If this is the case, you will be notified, and a staff member will contact you to make arrangements. 6. A representative of HHR will contact you either by phone or email regarding your pending adoption once they have approved your application.
