Dog Adoption Contract

Dog Adoption Contract
Terms & Conditions*
- I agree that no member of the family has been charged with cruelty to animals.
- I shall keep the dog/puppy as an indoor pet and will provide sufficient, appropriate food, water, shelter, and veterinary care to maintain good health.
- I assume responsibility for any future vaccinations or surgical procedures needed for the dog/puppy.
- I shall obtain and keep a license and/or rabies tag where required by law.
- I shall not have the dewclaws of the dog or puppy removed for cosmetic or personal reasons, or if they are attached. Explicit recommendation from a vet is required, and will only be considered for the health of the animal.
- I shall have a two-week trial period of adjustment during which time the dog/puppy may be returned to the OFS representative for a full refund of the adoption donation. After the 2-week trial period, the dog/puppy may be returned, but no refund will be issued.
- I shall have the dog/puppy established at a vet within 7 days from the date of adoption (or at a forthcoming scheduled vaccination or microchip or alteration appointment). Due to incubation periods and occult issues, health cannot be guaranteed. Adopters are responsible for any health issues.
- In the event that the adopting family is unable to keep the dog/puppy, OFS dog representative(s) MUST be notified and shall assist in its return or placement. At no time may the dog/puppy be sold, leased, or given away without prior written consent of the OFS Director.
- The dog/puppy is microchipped to OFS and should be registered by adopter, to adopter. In the event that the dog gets loose, OFS is to be contacted immediately. It is understood that if OFS is not contacted and the dog is found outdoors, adopter is in breach of contract.
- The adopting family agrees that if the OFS Director (or approved representative) determines that the terms and conditions of this agreement have not been upheld or the dog/puppy is not receiving proper care, the adopting family agrees to surrender custody of the dog/puppy upon demand. Should it be necessary to litigate in connection with any dispute, the adopting family agrees to pay all court costs and attorney fees.
- OFS does not warrant the temperament, behavior, or health of the rescue dog/puppy or that it is free of genetic defects. Furthermore, OFS is not responsible for any acts of the rescue dog/puppy while living with the adopting family. The adopting family, by placing their signature below, signifies their understanding of all the terms of the agreement and enters into the agreement freely and with goodwill.
