When we adopt an animal, before taking him home they will make us sign an adoption contract, which is nothing more than the legal agreement between two people so that one of them becomes the caretaker or caretaker of the furry from now on.
This document is very important, because since it has legal validity in the event that the agreement is not complied with, the protector or the previous owner can claim it.
What does the adoption contract regulate?
This it is a legal agreement between two parties, the adopter and the animal protector or between two natural persons. It is a document that specifies not only everything related to the delivery of the dog, but also the obligations that the new family has towards it. Thus, its clauses are as follows:
- Date and place of delivery
- Amount that the adopter has to pay for the adoption
- Health status of the animal (diseases it has or has had, treatments it has undergone)
What are the rules and obligations of the new family?
The protector or the previous family wants the dog to go to good hands, so that In the adoption contract we will also see that a series of rules and obligations that we have to comply with have been indicated, such as taking care of it correctly without mistreating it or neglecting it, accepting the follow-up, delivering the animal if the new owner cannot take care of it, and notifying if we change our address.
In this way, the adoption contract is a document that turns out to be very, very important for both parties, but above all for the dog, which has to be treated as it really deserves, that is, with love and patience.
