DOG ADOPTIONS

Dear dog adopters,

Firstly to all those who have adopted new family members congratulations and I hope you are enjoying a happy and loving time with your new addition. We would love to hear how you are getting on and we especially love to receive updated photos.

I am aware that there have been some teething problems in the past few months with the new dog adoption process and I would like to offer my sincere apologies to anyone who has been disillusioned with the process and to advise that I have now streamlined the process. While there still has to be a certain criteria in the placing of dogs we do realize that most people who want to adopt from an SPCA want to do so to help save lives and of course we wish to foster this within the community.

I hope you will understand that our number one priority in placing dogs is ensure that we place the right dog with the right home so there will be a life time of love and friendship between owner and dog.
