🐾 1. Application

Interested adopters complete an adoption application so we can learn about your lifestyle, home, experience, and what you’re looking for in an animal companion. Licence must be provided.

🐾 2. Meet & Greet

If your application is suitable, we organise a meet and greet. This allows you to spend time with the animal and ensure it’s the right match for both of you.

🐾 3. Video Home Check

A home or property check may be required (in person or via photos/videos). This helps us ensure the environment is safe, secure, and appropriate for the specific animal.

🐾 4. Approval

Once approved, we’ll confirm adoption details, including the adoption fee and next steps.

All animals adopted through Paws & Reins are:

Health checked

Desexed

Vaccinated

Microchipped

Wormed and flea treated

Council registered

Any known health or behavioural information is fully disclosed at the time of adoption.

🐾 5. Adoption Agreement & Fee

An adoption agreement must be signed, and the adoption fee paid prior to the animal leaving our care. Adoption fees help cover veterinary care, feeding, and ongoing rescue costs.

🐾 6. We will Deliver Your New Family Member

Once finalised, your new companion will be delivered to ensure the home is the same as the video and licence provided. We provide post-adoption support and request updates to ensure they are settling in well.

🐾 Important Notes - in our agreement

Animals must be returned to Paws & Reins if you can no longer care for them

On-selling or rehoming through third parties is not permitted

Indoor-only or secure containment requirements apply to most of our animals
