I, the above named Adopter, understand and agree to abide by the following conditions in order to adopt the German Shepherd dog named above from El Dorado County German Shepherd Rescue.
I will provide the dog with a loving and secure home, protect the dog from abuse, neglect and cruelty. I will accept this dog into my family, and provide it with proper food, fresh water, adequate exercise and shelter at all times. I will provide veterinary treatment as needed, including all vaccinations and tests to maintain the dog's health. I will ensure that the dog wears a collar with ID tags at all times and that the information on those tags is current.
If for any reason I can no longer keep the dog, I will request assistance from Rescue to find the dog a new home, or I will return the dog to Rescue. I will not give away or sell the dog, or under any circumstance allow the dog to be admitted to any animal control facility, animal shelter, humane society, or any such agency, regardless of circumstances. I will not sell or donate the dog to be used in research, vivisection, fighting, guard work, or any commercial activity. ' I acknowledge that EDCGSR charges adoption fees for their dogs to cover veterinary expenses. I agree to pay to Rescue the fee that applies to the dog that I am adopting. The adoption fee is $ 200.00. Rescue has the right to change the adoption fee depending on the circumstances surrounding the individual dog. I understand that EDCGSR will refund my adoption fee within 2 weeks, if I have to return the dog to Rescue. I also understand that my contribution in the form of an adoption fee is tax deductible.
At the time of adoption, EDCGSR presumes the dog to be in good health, and assumes no responsibility for any adverse health conditions, which are not in evidence at the time of adoption. I understand that Rescue does not have the ability to guarantee the dog's good temperament or it's behavior once in my ownership. EDCGSR assumes no liability for any damage or injury to person or property that may result from this adoption, including injury from dog bite. I agree to hold El Dorado County German Shepherd Rescue harmless in all regards to my adoption of the dog by this contract.
I have read and understand this contract and agree to abide by all the conditions imposed upon me by EDCGSR, which are designed to safeguard the health and safety of the dog.
