How long does it take to adopt a god from the humane society?

We are going down and filling out an ap tomorrow for a dog from the humane society…I’m so excited! But I am wondering how long it takes from the time you fill out the ap to when you get to take the dog home?
ya I mean a dog, not God, obviously :)
You guys are all weird…but really funny.

Since we are fast approaching Easter, he is risen indeed…

But still not up for adoption…

Each Shelter is different, ours takes 2 days. Good luck getting a dog, you can let him think you are god!

    Are you looking to adopt a major or minor deity? Any specific religious affiliation or just any old god?

    You fill the ap, do some documents and you get to take the dog the same day! Takes like half and hour to and hour!

    L.K.

    Good Luck, and god bless you for adopting a dog!

    You’ll have to ask them. Some places like to check references, or do home checks. Some, like where I adopted my dog (6 years ago) just had us fill out the sheet, sign a couple papers, and go.

    YOU CAN ADOPT A GOD?!
    Idk for sure, but they have to be sure the dog is safe to leave- that he has his shots and whatnot. It probably varies. Just ask when you’re there.

    It depends on the humane society. Probably a week at the most.

    Where I live, they check references and come out and look at your yard (if you say your dog is going to be an outside dog) to make sure you have a secure fence and a dog house.

    After filling out the application it takes 1-2 days to check vet references and personal references. They will probably tell you to call in a day to see if your application was approved or not. Then if your application is approved you could take the dog home the day your application is approved. Some humane societys do home checks to which will take 1-4 days for someone to come to check out your house and yard.

    At the Humane Society I work at, if you have everything you need and they have an adoption appointment open, then you can get the dog the same day.

    Things you’ll probably want to bring with you…

    Vet records from any pets you’ve had in the last few years to show they were UTD on vaccines and well taken care of

    Proof of either home ownership (either a tax bill or mortgage statement)or your lease that says you are allowed to have xyz pet. If you bring a lease they’ll probably have to make sure the owner actually owns this property, which they will check through calling a Town Clerk or a Town Assessor.

    You could call ahead to ask what their specific requirements are, that way if you find a dog you like you can make sure you have everything ready and that way you’ll be more ahead of the game if someone else is interested too. Good luck and thanks for adopting!

    My cousin is going all the way to brazil to find God. I should let him know to save his money and just stop by the Humane Society.

    God is your father. God doesn’t want you to adopt Him, thank you very much.

    God is an orphan. He has no parents. That is so sweet for you to do your part. He likes Tab cola and prunes. Good Luck!

    You don’t have to adopt him, just hang out here and he’ll start following you around. Wearing fishnets and high heels helps a lot.

    Getting God neutered would be the first thing on my list…he has gone WAY overboard with the breeding thing, and as far as I can see, he doesn’t take very good care of his offspring. What a dog he is. Then I’d be wondering what to feed him…he can go 40 days without eating, or so I’ve been told…

    BEFORE ADOPTING GOD YOU SHOULD ASK YOUR SELVE THESE QUESTIONS:
    1.) ARE YOU FINANCIALLY CAPIBLE OF CARING FOR A GOD?
    2.) IS THERE A GOOD VET THAT SPECIALIZES IN GODS IN YOUR AREA?
    3.) HOW WOULD YOU HANDLE A GOD THAT BITES?
    4.) WOULD GOD REALLY WANT TO BE PUT IN A CAGE?
    5.) WHAT WOULD YOU FEED IT?
    6.)IF IT CREATED THE WHOLE UNIVERSE THEN HOW COULD YOU HOUSE IT?
    7.)SAME SAID FOR BATHING IT!
