Shelter Skip Program

Please note that your owner information (i.e. name, phone, and/or email) will be listed publicly on your pet's online profile.  Potential adopters will be contacting you directly to make arrangements to meet your pet. 

TERMS OF USE:

I acknowledge that I am at least 18 years or older and I am the legal owner/guardian of this animal.  I understand the following:

• By submitting this form, my animal will be available for rehoming, pending approval.  Approval can take 48-72 hours.  
• I cannot charge any fees and that if I do, my pet's post will be removed from the site and future posts may be removed. 
• My pet's profile will be posted on yvas.org and possibly on the shelter's social media. 
• I take sole responsibility for communication with prospective adopters, and the final decision of selecting a new owner for my pet.  The advice given to me by YVAS personnel is for guidance only.  I take full responsibility for all decisions and outcomes relating to rehoming my pet.  
• I assume responsibility for my own safety and for the safety of my pet.  I will use caution and sound judgment when arranging meetings with strangers, such as meeting in public places and taking a trusted friend along.  I know not to exchange personal information.  If I feel something is not right, I will follow my instinct and act accordingly to protect myself and my pet.  
• I will do my best to respond to all emails and/or phone calls about my pet, realizing that a non-response could mean losing the best possible future home for my pet.
