“First of all, it is essential to take the animal to a veterinarian to make sure that all controls are up to date, draw up its vaccination plan and clear up all doubts,” it states Melina WajnerVeterinary (MN 9218) in charge of the Puppis health team and adds that an identification badge must be put on them to avoid any loss.

Another important point to discuss and define with a professional is food. “There are different types of food, depending on their size; small, medium and large; according to your specific needs; weight control, renal, urinary, gastrointestinal or hypoallergenic”, Wajner explains.

It is also necessary to determine the moments of play and rest since keeping them active is vital. In this sense, toys fulfill key functions. In the case of cats, for example, straws are used to maintain and develop their hunting sense and scratchers are excellent for preventing them from scratching the furniture in the house and discharging all their energies in one place. For dogs, balls, bones and teethers are recommended. For them to sleep comfortably, it is necessary to place their beds in a cool, quiet and safe place.

Another “basic” to receive it is to have a bunk bed, that is, a designated place to relieve themselves. Rocks and sand are great because they absorb moisture and odors.

Those who want to adopt can access the Puppis platform where they will find the available pets, already cared for by their team of veterinarians, who are ready to find a family. Candidates can apply online and follow an interview process as usual. If they are the one for the other they can approach to finalize the adoption in any of the stores.

Adopters must be over 21 years of age, complete a form with their data and conduct a telephone interview with the person in charge of Adoptions. There they will explain each instance of the process and all the care that the pet must receive.

Since its inception, Puppis has worked to raise awareness and continue betting on finding more agile mechanisms for the adoption process. Her program brings the allied animal shelters a super attractive benefit plan, since the controls and deworming of the pet within the program are free of charge. In some cases, the animal may remain in stores until it finds a family or even remain in transit, a huge network of allies who also support the protectors.
