Pet Adoption

 

Are you ready to adopt a pet?? 
Come prepared by printing the paperwork and bringing
the completed forms with you.
  Adoption Form

What else should you bring with you??
If you rent a house or apartment please provide paperwork that states it is ok for you to have a pet.
If you are interested in adopting a dog and you already have a dog(s) at home you are encouraged to bring them with you for a meet and greet with the potential new family member.  It is very important that your current pets are up to date on vaccinations and heartworm preventative.  We ask that you please DO NOT bring cats in for meet and greets.

What does the adoption fee cover?

Each HSTB adoptable has been vaccinated, health-checked, de-wormed, bathed, de-fleaed, microchipped, and spayed/neutered prior to placement. Pets who are four months of age or older receive a rabies vaccine. All dogs receive a DHLPP vaccine and are heartworm-tested at five months of age or older. All cats receive a FVRCP vaccine and have tested negative for FeLV/FIV.

A checkup with your veterinarian is required within 30 days of placement in your home.  A veterinarian can setup your new pet's account, perform a thorough evaluation, and determine if any additional vaccines are necessary for your pet's protection. You are welcome to visit our veterinarian at the HSTB Wellness Clinic for this service or one of the many area veterinarians that provide a free initial health evaluation for pets adopted from the Humane Society of Tampa Bay.
