Pups and Pals is a small group of volunteers in the Orange County and LA County area who focus on rescuing dogs in need and placing them into appropriate homes. We do have an occasional cat or small animal, but we do focus primarily on dog rescue. We are classified as a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization.
Adoption Procedures: 1) Take a look at the available dogs on our website. See if one catches your eye. 2) Fill out our adoption application on the website if you would like to visit specific dog (s). Because our dogs are mostly in foster homes, we do ask for an application before the meet and greet. 3) We try to respond to every application, even if the application is not a match for the pet, however please note that in some cases we have an overwhelming response to a pet and we simply cannot write an individual email to every applicant. If you do not get a response to your application within 72 hrs, your application was probably not selected for the pet. 4) Once the application is submitted and it seems like the dog is a good match for your family and vise versa we will schedule a meet/greet. 5) Depending on the case, we will ask pictures of your home/yard and often follow up with a home visit. 6) In most case the meet and greet is successfull and you get to take home your new family member (after signing an adoption contract). We are looking for serious people and families who will be making the dog part of your family, providing inside/outside homes, quality food, veterinary care, attending training classes and making a commitment to the dog for the rest of itsβ life, through good times and bad.
