Re Homing  a Pet

SMAS is proud to partner with Adopt-a-Pet to support a new rehoming process that helps community members find new homes for their pets, rather than needing to surrender them to a shelter. Here are the benefits of rehoming your pet: 

 

• No one knows your pet better than you, so you know what type of home is best for them! When you look for a new home for your animal, you’ll be able to provide medical history, any quirks or behaviors exhibited, what your pet likes and dislikes, and anything that is going to make a new home successful. 

• The shelter is scary and stressful for animals. There are so many unfamiliar sounds, smells, and situations that can all make animals feel on-edge and maybe even lash out, making it harder to be adopted. 

• Rehoming your pet also saves space in the shelter. We get calls everyday from other rescues asking if we can take in animals from them. The more animals we have to take in from homes, the less we can say “yes” to these rescue partners.
