Please Note:
The volunteers with Hanover Humane Society are committed to finding permanent, responsible, and loving homes for the animals in its Adoptions Program. Applications are animal-specific. Multiple applications will be accepted for the same animal, and the Committee will work to determine the best fit for the animal based on the animal’s needs and activity level, resident pets, etc. Adoption decisions are based on (1) the pet’s temperament and needs as well as (2) the applicant’s experience, family, lifestyle, personal references, yard, housing situation, employment, veterinary history and additional factors.
Hanover Humane’s Goal is to place the animal in a permanent home where it will be safe and well maintained.
The application process may take up to 7 days once the application has been submitted and a formal application acknowledgment has been sent by the Committee to the applicant. During this time, all references will be reviewed, a home visit may be requested, and follow-up communication may be required. Throughout the application review process, communication with the application will occur by email.
Please complete all data fields below and respond to all questions on the application. Failure to provide a response to any question may be deemed an incomplete submission, and the Adoptions Committee may not continue with the review of your application.
While the Hanover Humane Society has tried to make the on-line application compatible with mobile platforms there may be submission issues when using smartphones or tablet computers. We recommend using a desktop computer for the submission of the application to avoid communication issues
