14228 Indian Hollow Rd. Grafton, OH 44044 June Arnesen (440) 522-8558 After the adoption application is submitted we will complete your vet reference and/or personal references. If these references are approved, we will call you to do a phone interview. After the phone interview is complete and if we feel you will be a good match for the dog you are interested in, we will set up a meet & greet so you can spend time with the dog and we can meet you face to face. After the meet & greet, if all parties decide to move forward with an adoption a home visit will be completed before the formal adoption is finalized.
