Exceptions may be made depending the family’s experience with dogs, and on the dog being considered. We have some dogs that prefer to be in a home with older children or low activity, and we ask that you trust our experience and recommendations to help find the best match for you.
Step 3 – You’ve been approved for an official Meet-And-Greet! A volunteer with Cody’s Friends Rescue will schedule and conduct a Meet-And-Greet with your family and any other pets in the home.
Step 4 – If the Meet-And_Greet goes well, we’ll schedule a home visit (which may be done as part of the Meet-And-Greet) allowing the dog to begin a 10-day home trial. The home check ensures the safety and comfort of the dog in a new home. The adoption fee is collected and held at this time until the adoption is finalized.
Step 5 – After the home trial, if you’ve found your match, you can choose to finalize the adoption process by completing the Adoption Contract. Once finalized, you will receive your new dog’s prior medical records for your files, and their microchip will be transferred from Cody’s to you.
