The adoption of a rescue dog or cat has the objective to better the conditions of all unlucky animals we have
and to avoid  the commerce of them. You have to inform you before to adopt any animals about its characteristics and you have to ensure the pet’s care remembering that all the component of your family must agree with you .
Before adopting a pet you have to inform  about the responsability you take upon yourself in obedience of the provisions  of Andalusian Law n. 11/2003  on Animals Protection (you can find the integral text of the law on the web  www.asanda.org) and your  animal shall be identified by an electronic identification system (transponder), or by a clearly readable tattoo.
 
 
What we need to do is step up our efforts to educate the adoptants on the humane treatment of animals so that abandon  do not occur again.

FEES

To adopt a dog you have to be an ordinary member (one year at least): fee  30,00 euro.

Microchip: 25,00 euro  (required in Andalusian Region)
Vaccination : 15,00 euro ( when  you are an ordinary member)
The pure breed dogs or dominant type: 70 euro and you have to sign an agreement (no tranfert to third parties)
 
Adopting the Perfect Family Pet
 Adopting a dog or cat for the family is a big decision, and the Protectora S. Francisco de Asis  wants to help you  with your head-as well as your heart. Thinking before you bring home that little (or not so little) dog , adult or puppy , you can  save the animal from being returned to the shelter, and can help ensure a long and satisfying life with your pet.
1. Ask everyone in the family to describe their perfect pet.
Discuss their likes and dislikes, so you don’t accidentally come home with an animal who frightens them. Large dogs may be too strong or active for young children, for example, while some people may simply prefer cats over canines. Because a pet that you adopt will become part of the family, it is important that all family members want to bring the pet home.
2. If you are getting a pet for your child, it is unrealistic to expect the child to do all the work.
No matter how mature your child is, you will need to provide constant supervision and act as a back-up when your child is unable to handle the responsibility. Ultimately, you are the only responsible for the pet!!!
3. Make sure your family is ready for the changes an animal will bring into your home.
There will be many new things to do, and many new things to learn! Puppies, for example, need a lot of attention and training. They can end up chewing household items, and do not remain small for long. Cats do best if you keep to the same feeding, grooming and playing schedule every day. Do you and the other members of the family have the time to properly care for a new pet?
4. Learn which type of dog breed would best suit you and your children.
Some breeds are naturally more aggressive or high-strung than others. Some breeds such as……… are known to be more even-tempered and will do well with children. Most toy-sized and touch-and-noise-sensitive dogs are not suitable for young children.
5. Does anyone in your family have allergies?
If you are unsure about your children, have them spend time in the home of pet-owning friends before bringing home a dog or cat.
6. Teach your family and children about the pet before adopting.
Educate yourself and your children by reading books about pet care and asking pet-owning friends about their experiences. Be sure to explain that chores such as walking a dog several times a day and cleaning the cat’s litter box are part of the ongoing family responsibilities of caring for an animal. Your pet must have his confortable and clean place where to rest in your house. Let take a look on some interesting book on this argument.
7. Young animals and children may not mix well.
Very young children may unwittingly mishandle or hurt puppies and kittens, who are particularly vulnerable to being pulled at, dropped, or picked up inappropriately. Young animals have needle-sharp nails and milk teeth that can hurt youngsters by accident–so please , you have to teach to your child before.
8. Make sure the pet suits your home and lifestyle.
You may want a   very active dog, for example, which may not be a good choice if you live in a small apartment or if you don’t have time to go to walk to the park with him three times .  Or perhaps you like a  long-haired cat, but are not so keen on the added responsibility of daily brushing.  
9. Divide up the daily things you have to do and decide who will do what.
You have to  ensure that everyone is involved in the pet’s care, and that the pet fully becomes a part of the family-and, of course, it’s the right way to ensure that no one forgets to walk the dog or that the cat doesn’t get dinner three times in one day.
10. Holidays!  travelling with your pet.  
Be shure to be ready to change your lifestyle and your car too , if it necessary, and think how to carry the dog with you during the holidays.  There are several Hotel Guides and many  hotels in Europe where dogs and cats are allowed. If you want to travel with your dog you must have its “Pet Passport” according with the EU rules.  The information included in the Passport shall comply with the conditions required by the Member State of destination.
(The new EU-system is for cats, dogs and ferrets. For other pets, there is not yet harmonised legislation at the EU level, so national legislation applies)
 
*****Remember that if you want to travel with your pet during the holidays the  tattoo, as a means of identification,  will only be accepted until 3 July 2011 ( and not for movements to the UK, Malta and Ireland - transponder obligatory).
After 3 July 2011, the transponder will be the only identification system allowed.
