You'll need to be prepared to go at Lore's pace and understand that building trust will take time.<br/><br/>Patient and Loving Environment: Lore will need a calm, quiet environment where she can feel safe and secure. A predictable routine will help her feel more at ease.<br/><br/>Training and Socialization: Lore will benefit from positive reinforcement training to help her overcome her fearful behaviors. With guidance, she can learn to navigate new situations with more confidence.<br/><br/>Time and Commitment: Gaining Lore's trust won't happen overnight.

Lore's journey to confidence and trust is delicate and crucial, and it's important that she finds a stable, dedicated home where she can flourish without disruption.<br/><br/>Lore will need a committed owner who is prepared to invest time and effort into her training and socialization.

Application First, individuals can review adoptable animals by clicking “Adopt” at the top of the screen. All potential adopters must fill out an adoption application under the same tab. The application includes two non-family references as well as information on the potential adopter’s landlord and designated veterinarian. References will be contacted separately to obtain the requisite information. Meet and Greet Once the application and references have been successfully reviewed and approved, a NPAR representative will reach out to the potential adopter to set up a meet and greet with the animal. Home Visit The home visit is the final important piece in identifying a safe home for all of our animals. A NPAR representative will schedule a visit that fits your schedule. We ask that all family members are present. Contract The contract can be signed at the conclusion of the home visit or at a later date.
