Our Adoption Policies
* The Humane Society of Kandiyohi County (HSKC) reserves the right to refuse adoption to any person. * Before a person living in rental housing can adopt an animal, HSKC needs permission from the landlord to have the animal on the premises * HSKC will not adopt to individuals with known history of animal abuse or cruelty, repeated animal control violations or previous violation of adoption contracts * Animals need a certain amount of individual attention so HSKC will refuse adoption to homes with excessive numbers of animals. * HSKC discourages animals as gifts and therefore promotes gift certificates. * People adopting are expected to follow animal ordinances enforced in their community, including needed vaccinations, licensing and leash law requirements. * People adopting a dog are required to either have a fenced yard in which the animal can exercise and be restricted from running at large, or be able to show that they will provide adequate exercise under humane control. * A temporary identification tag will be given to people adopting a dog or cat to be used until permanent identification is obtained. * Animals deemed to be a potential danger to the community (people or other animals) will not be adopted to anyone * HSKC will never place wild or exotic animals as pets. This includes hybrids of wild or domestic animals. * You will accept the animal in an "as is" condition. * Animals will not be adopted into a situation where they remain outdoors at all times. * HSKC adopts animals to be companions and will not adopt a dog to individuals intending to use them primarily for guarding or a cat to function merely as barn cats or mousers. * HSKC will never adopt out animals to be used for breeding purposes. * You are required to provide routine vaccinations, adequate food, water, shelter and exercise. * You are not to transfer ownership without consulting the Humane Society of Kandiyohi County at (320) 235-7612 or shelter@thehskc.com.Out and About
