HELPFUL HINTS FOR RE-HOMING 

• Never put an ad in the paper saying “Free to a Good Home.”
  


• Check veterinary references!!  Specifically ask about HW prevention and how they treat their animals.
  


• Check personal references other than a family member.
  


• Meet and greet family members and other animals of potential adopters.
  


• Request a home check.  If they decline, do not place your pet.  
  


• Ask if they have a fenced yard.  You wouldn’t want your pet to spend its life at the end of a chain.
  


• Ask “HOW WILL THE PET SPEND THE DAY?”
