ADOPTION APPLICATION
Once your application is reviewed by Brookhaven Animal Rescue Alliance Ltd, we require a phone interview with personal and your vet references. A home visit will then be scheduled before and/or after all these requirements are met and if your application is accepted. If at either home visit you are found not to meet the care, loving and health commitment required by Brookhaven Animal Rescue the adoption will be voided and the adopted pet returned back to Brookhaven Animal Rescue at that home visit.
Please note that an application does not lock you into adopting nor does it guarantee that the adoption will proceed. It just helps us decide which of our available dogs or cats will be right for your family.
Before you fill out this application to adopt a rescue cat or dog from Brookhaven Animal Rescue please make sure you’ve thought about this decision. Adopting a dog or cat is a meeting of the heart as well as the mind. It is a lifetime commitment to an animal that will be your loving companion and your best friend. We want to make this decision as easy as possible for you, so if you are not sure you can take such a permanent step, please consider fostering one of our cats or dogs before you adopt to help alleviate the pressure you may feel.
