Making A Commitment
  9. A.A.R.F. makes every attempt possible to find forever homes for these animals. Relocating animals from home to home has a negative affect on animals, therefore, we strive to do it right the first time. Rescue animals in general come with some type of emotional baggage. Since we were not there to see what they have experienced and witnessed, we cannot guarantee you the perfect animal immediately. All animals take patience, time, work and commitment - some rescue animals may exceed the normal amount that one would expect.
  11. By checking this box, you are stating that you understand the mission of this organization; you understand what is expected of you in regard to caring for this animal; and you are ready, willing, and able to make this lifelong commitment to this animal.

  12. As the Applicant, I agree to:

    1. Keep a properly fitted collar on my dog at all times and an identification tag in the case that he or she gets separated from me;
    2. Obtain any and all licenses required by the State and/or local authorities;
    3. Provide the above referenced pet with necessary inoculations at the intervals advised by my veterinarian (AARF is not responsibility for any medical fees incurred after the date of the adoption);
    4. Have the above referenced pet under my control when it is not on the confines of my property. A secured area, and shelter will be provided for dogs, and cats will be housed indoors only, unless specified;
    5. Not keep my pet tied up or chained for extended lengths of time;
    6. Contact AARF if I cannot keep my pet for any reason, or find another no-kill rescue organization to surrender my pet to;
    7. Not abuse or neglect my new adopted pet and I authorized AARF, at their sole discretion, to determine whether or not the pet has been abused or neglected. A.A.R.F. reserves the right to follow up on any adoption via telephone, e-mail or scheduled home visitation at a mutually agreed upon time between adopter and A.A.R.F. volunteer;
    8. Not engage my new pet in any aggressive acts, such as dog fighting.
