Dottie’s FAQs

What is Louisa Humane Society’s adoption process?

If you are interested in meeting any our animals, please fill out an adoption application at www.louisahumanesociety.com, click on the “paw” for Adoption Application. or copy/paste the following link into your internet browser: http://louisahumanesociety.com/adoptionapplication.htm Once submitted, the vet reference you provided will be contacted (if no vet, please provide 3 personal references, may be family and friends as long as they have a dog that you interact with), and a volunteer will schedule a phone interview with you. Once approved, you will be contacted by the foster parent to discuss the animal and arrange the logistics for a visit. Our rescue group does not have a brick and mortar facility, all our animals are home fostered in our volunteer’s houses. You will be visiting a private residence. The application does not oblige you to adopt, nor does the visitation; the application just gives us more info to help ensure a good match. Our policy is that we always take our animals back should it prove to be a less than perfect match, or if you are unable or unwilling to care for the animal any longer. We just don't want the animal to go back into the system.
