13. Does your family have quality time to devote to a new pet at this time? We just want to be sure you are prepared for what is ahead. Training, care, exercise all take a great deal of time. It is a big responsibility/commitment for the next 10-15 years if you are lucky.

(Tell us a little about what your lifestyle is like and what plans you have for a puppy. Include how physically active you and your family are. Would a high endurance pet that needs lots of energy better suit your family or a pet that will require less activity?

19. Would you ever consider letting a pet ride loose in the back of a truck while it was moving?

20. If you do get a pet from us, would you agree that if down the road you must give up your pet for some unforeseen reason…

21. Do you agree to keep your pet current on all shots and healthcare? This includes monthly heartworm preventive, which kills thousands of dogs and cats every year.

23. Will this pet be in allowed inside your home? If not explain why and your plans for suitable shelter for this pet while outside.

Where will your pet sleep at night?

24. Dogs sometimes tend to be territorial and protective of their homes. Some Dogs feel it is their job to guard their home and family. I am not referring to a very aggressive behavior just barking when someone arrives and they may be reserved with strangers. Would this cause you concern and how do you think you would handle this situation?

We have a buyer/seller adoption agreement that covers basically all the above that you will be given at the time your pick you your new companion.

You can email this back or send it regular mail.
