Thank you for inquiring about a Pet Helpers pet.  All of our pets are located in WV.  We do not ship or transport so if approved for adoption you must be able to drive to WV to get your new pet.  

Despite your excitement to add a new pet to your family please read all parts of this application. Taking on the responsibility of a pet is a long term expensive commitment. You should not enter into this process lightly and you should give it more than a moments thought.  From the moment you get this pet every decision you make in your life will require you to think about the pet also.  If you move, if you marry or divorce, if you have a child, if you change jobs or take on an additional job.  Financially do you know what this pet will cost you?.  It is very important for us to know that you are able to financially care for this pet and have the ability to provide routine vet care (vaccinations, parasite preventive, etc.) and extreme pet care (accidents and illness).  Unfortunately, if you are unable to properly financially care for the pet, then you should wait to adopt when your finances are in a better place.

Our pets have been seen by a vet prior to their adoption. There is no health guarantee. They are as healthy as we can make them prior to adoption to their new families.  If you are adopting a puppy it is not fully protected against disease until 2 weeks after the 3rd booster shot, so great care should be taken to keep them in an area known to be free of the parvo virus.  In other words you would not take them to a place frequented by other dogs like a dog park, pet store floors, rest areas, etc.

If the pet that you are adopting is over five months of age, they have already been spayed or neutered before being available for adoption.  If they are under five months of age, adoption is still possible, and an appointment to either spay or neuter the pet will be made by us at one of our local veterinarians.  You will be required to transport the pet to the specified vets office for this surgery.
