AGREEMENT
I understand that dogs placed by KCEBR have been acquired, fed, and boarded; have received necessary medical care and vaccinations, and have been tested to be free of heartworms and contagious disease at the expense of KCEBR volunteers who receive financial reimbursement for expenses only through donations. I understand that I may be asked to give a donation to KCEBR to help with spaying/neutering and veterinary care of current and/or future rescued bulldogs. I understand that if, for any reason, I can no longer care for or keep the dog, I must return it directly to a KCEBR member, and I will sign all necessary papers for the surrender of the dog. The specific adoption amount is determined based on the individual dog’s age, health, and rehab requirements. I hereby make application to KCEBR to have my name added to an appropriate waiting list to be considered for giving a rescued bulldog a permanent home. I understand that my application may not be acknowledged unless or until I am being considered to adopt a particular bulldog and that it may be important for me to be available for an interview by phone and in person on short notice. By signing you agree to all conditions that apply to this application, you agree that all information is truthful and accurate. Failure to answer all questions fully can result in delay of your application process. Please review your application to ensure you have provided all required information.
