Adoption

GMHS strives to find the best homes for animals in the shortest amount of time possible.

• We believe in asking the right questions to meet customers’ expectations and match each animal with an appropriate home to meet their needs. For this reason, the first application submitted for an animal may not necessarily be the home selected for the animal.
  
• We strive to provide excellent customer service, and finding a truly fitting family member for a potential adopter is our utmost priority. Identifying important or desirable characteristics of an animal often leads to a wonderful recommendation.
  
• Prior to approval, GMHS verifies current pets in the home are up-to-date for their own protection and to serve as a reference check for adopters’ demonstrated veterinary care
  
• Lastly, GMHS respects landlord restrictions to ensure permanency and security of adopted animals.
