Adoption Requirements
Journey Home Animal Rescue
Thank you for your interest in adopting from Journey Home Animal Rescue. Our goal is to adopt pets into forever loving homes to responsible adults. We have specific adoption requirements that must be met to be approved to adopt through our organization. These requirements are in place to set both families and pets up for success.
Our adoption requirements are mandatory and non-negotiable.
Please only apply once you meet the requirements.
