Adoption and Surrender
ADOPTION

Adopting a Wiseguy is very simple.  First you'll need to submit an application.  This
application is available by contacting us.  We can email or postal the application to you.  
We then schedule a homevisit and if all goes well, you will soon be the proud parent of
a rescued IG!!!  We request that all members of the household be present on the day of
your homevisit so that we can meet the whole family!

We do not discriminate based on religion, sex, income, nationality, handicap, etc.  
HOWEVER we reserve the right to refuse adoption for many reasons (not those listed
above).  At all times we must remain focused on the safety and well-being of the
IGs...after all, that's what we're here for!!!  We request a $250 adoption fee for our IGs,
though occasionally we make exceptions based on future medical needs, etc.  

We also request a follow-up visit after adoption.  This is simply to see how everyone is
getting along, and answer any questions that may have arisen during your first few
weeks together!!


SURRENDERING

There are times when for whatever reasons, you may no longer be able to care for your
IG.  This is where rescue is so important.  Please contact us at any time if you need to
surrender your IG.  We also have contacts within other breed rescues and can assist
you if you have a pet of another breed or species that you can no longer care for.  We do
not judge anyone based on their need to surrender.  It is truly our hope that anyone who
is needing to surrender feels comfortable in contacting us.
