Mija’s FAQs

What is Appalachian Peace Paws Rescue’s adoption process?

Adopters fill out a simple digital application that includes a home check, two references, landlord verification, and vet references. A volunteer makes sure the applicant can have animals where they live, that all household members are in agreement, that references feel they are ready for a pet, that they can take financial responsibility for a new pet, and that they have properly cared for pets they've had in the past. Once this is done an in person or virtual home check is done and the successful applicant is asked to make a donation (required amounts vary by species) to help offset our costs and the applicant can arrange to take their new family member home.
