ATTENTION BREED RESCUE

Policy and Procedure concerning Breed Rescues and the CCSPCA

In order to be able to pull dogs from our shelter rescues must meet the following qualifications:

P rovide a copy of agency Adoption Application

Provide a copy of agency Adoption Contract

Provide a veterinary reference

Provide names of President or Founder and local contact (if any)

A physical address of the President or Foster in addition to the mailing address.

If local to the Cumberland County area, allow a site inspection by the SPCA's Cruelty Investigators prior to pulling animals.

Animals pulled from the shelter for rescue will normally have the following procedures completed before leaving:

DHLPP vaccination

Intranasal Bordetella

Intestinal Parasite Check

Heartworm test

These items are done at no cost to the rescue, and there is no fee for pulling an animal from CCSPCA. Our main interest is to see the animal go to a rescue that can adequately care for them until adoption. If a cat rescue wants testing for FeLuk we can accommodate that request for a small fee ($10)

The CCSPCA currently has a low cost spay/neuter clinic. We can arrange for the animal being pulled to be spayed/neutered if asked within a reasonable time and excluding animals that may be sick, injured, or otherwise unable to withstand surgery prior to leaving the SPCA.
