This Adoption Contract Form is the basis of a contract between you and Saving Souls Animal Rescue to ensure the welfare of your new rescue dog. It is important that you take time to read it carefully and commit to all of our conditions of adoption.
Saving Souls Animal Rescue takes every adoption seriously and will endeavour to make sure the right dog is placed in the right home as well as offer lifetime backup for each adopted dog. So for you, adopting a dog is a lifetime commitment and it is for us too.
Your signature on this form indicates that you understand and agree to:
• Not sell or give away the dog under any circumstances
• Return the dog to Saving Souls Animal Rescue if you become unable to care for it for any reason
• If you adopt a puppy, you will arrange for it to be neutered when deemed old enough by your veterinary surgeon

• Only use positive reinforcement when training the dog and to take the dog to professional training if required

All dogs are fully vaccinated, flea and tick treated, wormed etc. and are vet checked prior to departure. You will be made aware of any previous existing conditions prior to adoption.
Saving Souls Animal Rescue agree to offer you full support regarding the welfare of the dog should you require help at any time.
Should the adoption fail, Saving Souls Animal Rescue will take the dog from you and rehome it, under no circumstances rehome it yourself please! This is part of our lifetime backup service and our lifetime commitment to every dog we rehome.
Saving Souls Animal Rescue have different adoption fees depending on where the dog is being rehomed from and the amount will be agreed at the application stage.
This amount may also vary depending on the dog adopted. The adoption fee for overseas dogs covers the following:-
· Full Blood Test
· Vaccinations

· Neutering if old enough
· Parasite Treatment
· Vet Health Check
· Import and Export paperwork
· Cost of Flight
· Cost of Courier
· Registration of the dogs microchip is NOT included and is an additional cost of £20
The adoption fee will be payable as soon as a successful home check has been completed, assuming you have already chosen a dog. If not, then as soon as you choose which dog you wish to adopt. This will enable Saving Souls Animal Rescue to book the flight and/or courier and have the funds readily available to pay for them.
Thank you so much for choosing to adopt a dog through Saving Souls Animal Rescue. We passionately care about the fact there are so many dogs in the UK and worldwide looking for homes and you have just changed the world for one dog.
