7.1               A pet owner (“Guardian”) may in our discretion or Suppaw may on behalf of a Guardian, list a pet (“Pet Listing”) for adoption by for those who desire to be pet adopters (“Adopter”). By listing a pet, each Guardian agrees, and each Adopter understands, as follows:

7.1.1         When you, the Guardian, transfer the pet into the possession of the Adopter, you are no longer such pet’s owner. By transferring such pet you agree that you have no right to such pet and are not responsible for such pet. The Adopter owns such pet, is responsible for such pet, and owes Suppaw the adoption fee (if applicable).

7.1.2         You are the legal Guardian of the pet whose profile you are listing, and legally authorized to transfer possession of that pet to an Adopter.

7.1.3         You are at least 18 years of age or legal age in your state of residence (whichever is greater).

7.1.4         All information you provide will be truthful, accurate, complete and up to date to the best of your knowledge at the time provided and you will update any Pet Listings to keep them truthful, accurate and complete. You are solely responsible for the accuracy and completeness of such information.

7.1.5         You are wholly responsible for fulfilling obligations both implied and stated in any Pet Listing you create and you may not post any Pet Listing that you do not intend to honour.

7.1.6         You are solely responsible for complying with all applicable laws in connection with the delivery of a pet to an Adopter.

7.1.7         You understand that we reserve the right to suspend your account or revoke your right to use this Website or cancel a Pet Listing at any time for any reason and to report suspicious listings to appropriate law enforcement agencies.

7.1.8         Pets are listed and adoptions made at the Guardian’s own risk and discretion. Suppaw has no decision-making authority with respect to the adoption process. The Adopter and Guardian are solely responsible for any and all communications and interactions, including, but not limited to, meet-ups.

7.1.9         You acknowledge that any collection of a final adoption fee helps to ensure, but does not guarantee that the Adopter’s intentions for the pet are in the pet’s best interest.

7.1.10      You will not accept or receive any payment, in the form of cash, services, or property, for the adoption of any pet listed on this Website. Your account may be suspended or your right to use this Website revoked, in Suppaw’s discretion, if you breach this covenant.

You also agree that each pet you list on this Website does not pose an imminent threat of serious aggression towards people or other animals nor has the pet shown any behaviors that could be defined as “dangerous” or “vicious.” Specifically, no dog listed by Guardian has been determined to be a “Bad Dog” or like determination under applicable law.

8.       PET LISTINGS

8.1               Only pets belonging to the Guardian’s organisation or are part of an assisted rehoming program for a member of the public may be listed by or listed on behalf of the Guardian.  Guardians may be asked or Suppaw may remove any pets listed on behalf of other rehoming organisations. 

8.2               It is crucial that any pet found through an adoption service be thoroughly examined by a veterinarian immediately upon adoption.  We cannot guarantee the health or temperament of any pet offered for adoption, nor can we comprehensively evaluate nor endorse the practices of any organisation or individual.  For the avoidance of doubt, any description of a pet shall not be a representation, warranty or guarantee on the part of Suppaw.

8.3               We are not responsible for any damages arising out of the use of any information contained on the Website.  Any pets found, adopted through or listed in Suppaw are the sole responsibility of the adoption organisation and/or adopting party.  Suppaw accepts no responsibility for any liability or for any injury or damages to any person or property caused by any listed pet, as well as any cause of action, claims, suits or demands whatsoever that may arise as a result of such injury or damage.
