Dogs who are in shelters have a higher risk of exposure to illness due to the amount of animals they are potentially exposed to. Wright-Way Rescue makes every effort possible to ensure the health and well being of it's adoptable pets. Once in a while, despite best efforts, a pet will become ill post adoption. Pet insurance is provided that typically helps to cover the cost of minor health issues. Adopters are responsible for the deductible and signing up for this insurance offer after adoption. If a life threatening illness occurs within two weeks of adoption Wright-Way Rescue will take back the pet and treat him or her at our partner veterinarian. As a not for profit organization, any bills you incur at your private veterinary clinic will not be repayed. Do you understand the health and treatment policies of Wright-Way Rescue?

**NOTE** Application must be completed in its entirety. If you leave any items incomplete, you must call

the shelter with the information before your application will be considered. Please help us speed up the

adoption process and ensure all items are complete before you submit this application.

Many factors go into determining which applicant will be matched with a particular animal. If you are not

chosen for this pet, it does not mean that you are not considered a good pet owner or that your home is

not acceptable. Our goal is to place every animal in the home that will best suit its needs.

I hereby swear that the answers given by me on this application are true and complete to the best of

my knowledge and I understand the application process.
