So You Want To Adopt Your New Best Friend

We’re OK Foundation will consider adoptive families all over the country. Coordinating will be the responsibility of the adopter once approved. Our goal is to make the best rescue match taking into consideration the animal's background and your family's needs. Every animal is different: personality, temperament, energy, comfort with kids and other animals, medical needs and more. We take all these factors into consideration when making a furever-home match. We are very careful about the placements we make. We do our best to match the right animal with the right adoptive home because we want this to be the pet's permanent home.

If you are willing to wait for the right animal to be matched to you,
you are an ideal candidate for We’re OK Foundation. As our success rate proves, these precious animals are well worth the wait.

OUR PROCESS

1

Apply

We appreciate you wanting to bring a animal into your home. In order for us to find the right pet for you, we need you to submit an adoption application.

2

Review

We will review your application upon receipt. If we have any questions or concerns, we will contact you for clarity.

3

Reference verification

Once your application review is complete, a We’re OK Foundation volunteer will begin contacting the references you provided as well as your current and previous (if applicable) Veterinarians. This may also include a home visit prior to adoption approval.

Finding Your Pet

Once approved to adopt, the search for your animal begins. Volunteers will begin to evaluate pets currently in our foster care program who may be a good fit for you and your family. We would also be open to discussing animals in our care that you are specifically interested in.
