IMPORTANT:

Although we vaccinate, de-worm and check all pets to see that they are healthy before they go to their new homes, it isn’t possible to give a 100% guarantee that they aren’t carrying an infection.

We subsequently urge you to consult your Vet and inform him/her that you intend adopting a dog from the SPCA and ask him/her to check that your pets’ vaccinations are up to date.
