Application

You may find us a bit "nosy" with the questions you are requested to answer, but please understand that our only objective is to make the perfect match, and we try to go that extra mile in search of the best match for our perspective adoptee.  Each has his or her own unique personality and characteristics.  Once we rescue them from the shelter, we give them  the necessary veterinary care required. They also get lots of  TLC and a behavioral evaluation in our home.  Their lives have been interrupted for one reason or another, and it's our desire to make certain that wherever they go next, they will be in  their forever home. Please answer all questions. Applications that are not complete will not be considered.

Please copy and paste this page into an email and send to gyddogmama@aol.com . Please fill out ALL answers. Incomplete applications will not be considered.
