Please take a moment to be sure all questions were answered completely. As stated in the rules, mark "n/a" if a line does not apply. This is your one chance to impress us! The info you give us will make sure we're matching the right pet and right family together for a happy ending! Do you realize applications we feel are not complete cannot be processed? =

In doing so, you are agreeing you've read our entire process and are swearing that all information you entered is correct. You also realize that by submitting your application, you are in no way guaranteed a pet. CCHS takes great pride in not just finding "a home", but a great home for each of our special pets. Rarely do we deny an applicant, so if you miss out on a pet, please do not think of yourself as being denied. With the pet's best interest in mind, as well as yours, we match people and pets together for long-term relationships and we'll try to help you find a great companion soon! CCHS has the right to deny any application, for any reason, at any time. =
