References, anyone?

One of the requirements on the Animatch Adoption Application is a reference — and no, it cannot be a family member. That means no husband, wife, boyfriend, girlfriend, mom, dad, siblings, etc. While they may know you best, they’re just a little too close to be considered objective.

We’re not asking for a formal letter or professional recommendation — just someone who can vouch for your ability to care for a dog.

Need a few hints? Think:

•    A close friend you’ve known for a few years
•    A neighbor
•    A co-worker or manager
•    A fellow church or club member

Basically, anyone who knows you well and isn’t related to you!

So many dogs need homes — help us make that happen by answering this question correctly.
