"There is no one on earth more deserving of help than a good dog who has given its heart and soul to its family and then lost its home." — Annie Simon

The CCRT is committed to responsible pet ownership and to that end, we follow important guidelines when reviewing adoption and volunteer applications. The CCRT mandates that all pets currently in an applicant's home be spayed or neutered (unless as per the advice of your veterinarian) before we will consider placing a rescue dog with you. We believe very strongly in the importance of spaying/neutering for many reasons, including the improved health of the pet as well as helping to curb the high incidence of unncessary/accidental breeding.

The CCRT also believes that routine veterinary care, including an annual checkup at the vet, is important to the health and safety of your pet. While there are differing opinions on annual vaccinations, your pet should see a vet at least once a year to ensure he/she is in optimum health. The CCRT does not mandate annual shots. However, your pet should be immunized on a regular basis as per the advice of your veterinarian. Heartworm tests and medication (where applicable in Canada) should also be a part of your annual routine with your pet.

Should your pet not be spayed/neutered, on heartworm prevention (where applicable in Canada) or not seeing a vet once a year for an annual checkup, the CCRT reserves the right to not proceed with your application.
