[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not all of the shelters and rescues in the area make it difficult! Humane Rescue Alliance prides itself on being friendly to adopters - and so do the other local shelters: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/animalia/wp/2018/02/02/millions-of-dogs-need-homes-why-is-it-sometimes-hard-to-adopt-one/?utm_term=.a9e30d118973[/quote] I last adopted a dog more than 14 years ago from WARL (before they merged with the Humane Society) and it was tough to get a dog from them. You had to have a home visit before you could be approved and no one took an animal home the same day. I would not have called them "adopter friendly" back then. I had no idea that they had loosened the process after the merger. Having said that, I adopted two dogs through them despite the hurdles and it was totally worth it. [/quote]
