All puppy wellness visits and vaccinations after the adoption date will be at the adopter's expense. We recommend that you, the adopter, follow up with your veterinarian for a wellness visit as soon as possible after adoption. At that time, your veterinarian can review the schedule of vaccinations that your puppy will need. I agree that all medical expenses going forward are my responsibility. I understand that some conditions may not have appeared while the above-mentioned dog was in the care of MLRR. I understand that some illnesses, such as kennel cough or fecal parasites, can remain dormant for several weeks.
My new puppy wSill not be left alone for a “normal” business day. I will make arrangements so that my puppy will not be left alone for more than 4 hours. At a minimum, someone will take the puppy outside for a “potty” break in the middle of the day. If my new puppy is under 5 months old, I will enroll her/him in a puppy socialization class that uses only force-free positive training techniques immediately after adoption. A puppy socialization class typically provides an opportunity for socialization with other puppies, people, and items in a safe and controlled environment with guidance from a knowledgeable trainer during a critical developmental age.
I agree to have my dog spayed or neutered by a licensed veterinarian at my own expense. This procedure must be completed by the time the dog is 12 months of age.
Once the dog is altered, MLRR will provide $150 toward the cost of the spay or neuter procedure. To receive the $150 payment, I must submit a veterinary receipt showing that the procedure was completed within 90 days of the alteration date. Any costs above $150, as well as charges for additional services performed at the same visit, are my responsibility.
Health Exceptions: The 12-month spay/neuter deadline may be extended only if I provide MLRR with a written statement from a licensed veterinarian indicating that the procedure would pose a health risk to the dog at that time.
Non-Compliance: I understand that MLRR reserves the right to reclaim any adopted dog if I do not comply with the spay/neuter requirements outlined above. MLRR is not responsible for getting the dog to and from the veterinarian for the surgery.
Additional Agreements: I confirm that I have also completed and signed the MLRR Adoption Agreement and that I understand and agree to all terms stated in both the MLRR Adoption Agreement and MLRR Adoption Policies.
If for any reason I cannot keep this puppy, I will not transfer ownership to any other person or shelter before contacting MLRR.
In addition to this signed contract attachment for my puppy, I have completed and signed an MLRR Adoption Agreement. I understand and agree to all information in the MLRR Adoption Agreement and the MLRR Adoption Policies.
I understand and agree to the terms of this adoption agreement attachment.
