1) Confidentiality: This form is designed to help you find the dog or puppy most compatible with your lifestyle. BARK will maintain the information provided below as confidential and will not share your information with any outside individuals or organizations without your express consent.

2) Spay/Neuter: BARK ensures that all adult dogs and puppies are spay/neutered prior to adoption. It is possible that an approved adopter may experience a short waiting period (for spay/neuter to occur) between being approved and being able to take the dog or puppy home. In the event this occurs, we thank you for your patience.
