REFERRAL ADOPTIONS
Mountains' Humane Society offers a free adoption referral service.
As a courtesy to pet owners seeking new homes for their pets, we will post adoptable pets on this page as well as Petfinder.com and Adoptapet.com. These postings will be removed in 3 months unless we hear from the original poster sooner. There is some required information needed for these websites; please email us at mountainshumanesociety@hotmail.com for a list of the required info.
This is a free courtesy service to PET OWNERS, not to be used by any breeders or resuce groups!
We also keep a list of phone numbers and information regarding pets available for adoption by their owners, and we keep a list of pet-seekers wanting to adopt a particular pet.
This is a person to person, private adoption program. If you are interested in listing your pet for adoption, or if you are seeking a particular pet, please call Karin at (909) 337-6422 or email us at mountainshumanesociety@hotmail.com
Our free referral service is unique and beneficial because unlike shelter adoptions, you have the opportunity to obtain pet history directly from the current owners. Pet history proves to be very beneficial to new owners when considering a new pet. Some helpful questions to ask would be pet behavior; does this animal get along with other pets and children, is it house trained, accurate age of animal, current medical records and history of this pet.
We recommend that the current owners meet at the residence of the pet-seeker. Seeing the new home offers closure for all parties involved. We also advise a two week trial period be worked out between the two referral parties, just in case situations change. The only responsibility of the MHS is to solely provide contact numbers as a free referral service for the purpose of adopting animals from person to person. All other responsibilities are yours.
There is no guarantee that the adoption will be a success, nor that the animal has been spayed/neutered or has current vaccinations.
If you choose to adopt a pet from our free referral service that has not been spayed/neutered, please contact us at (909) 337-6422 to obtain information on receiving a certificate that will cover or help cover the cost of the procedure.
