Only buy quality animal food from a pet food store (or Costco) never from a grocery store. With so many great pet stores offering a wide variety of top quality food, it's really your choice, and what you new animal will eat. Sometimes in the beginning it might be trial and error so perhaps small bags to start with until your find the right one.Some good brands include Zignature, Merrick, Wellness, Royal Canine, Taste of The Wild and Kirkland brand from Costco.
We may not be able to narrow down what quality food is best for your new animal but we can certainly tell you what foods NOT TO FEED a animal.Do not feed any brands available in a grocery store (Purina, Pedigree, Beniful etc.) These low-grade foods are over processed, filled with fillers like corn, preservatives and toxins which are very problematic for animals. Also, no products at all from CHINA.

GO SLOW, TAKE TIME. Knowing what steps to follow and more importantly what NOT to do will help everyone.Click appropriate links for successful integration tips that apply to you.

animals LOVE their human family. Your new animal should sleep inside the house preferably in the same room as a family member, especially at first.Do not expect your animal to sleep in a remote room such as kitchen or laundry room which makes your new animal feel isolated rather than included. A crate in your bedroom is a great integration tool helping your animal feel safe, avoid accidents, and prevent anxiety.
The simple answer to this question is to integrate your animal by following Final Victory Animal Rescue take home instruction and taking things in baby steps. Your new animal has a lot to learn and get used to. Every home is different; every animal is different. The most important thing to remember is that Final Victory Animal Rescue is here to help you after adoption with advice and to answer questions to help your new animal fully integrate.
Here are links of the most common questions people have when bringing home a new animal.
Final Victory Animal Rescue treats health issues that are apparent when animals arrive or conditions that develop during their time at our facility. Owner surrenders to Final Victory Animal Rescue often come with their medical history and records. animals that we pull from city shelters often come without much history and we must evaluate visually from experience.Final Victory Animal Rescue will always divulge any conditions that are known and treatment protocols.We partner with quality vets for the very best for animals in our care.
Please be aware that there can be a very common temporary condition that affects many animals in communal living environments: kennels, boarding facilities, etc.Kennel Cough and Diarrhea/Giardia are easily spread but also easily treated. Your new animal may or may not have been exposed so please take a moment to familiarize yourself with these common and very treatable temporary conditions.
Make sure your resident animal is current with shots, especially bortatella before visiting Final Victory Animal Rescue.
We are fortunate to have adopters come from all corners of California and surrounding states to work with our team to adopt the perfect animal for them. No matter where you live, our policy is that all parties (human and pets) must come to meet adoption candidates in person. This is the only way to observe the interaction and ensure a responsible lifetime match. If you, and all in your home are up for a trip to Final Victory Animal Rescue we welcome your application. Should the adoption not be for life, the dog must be returned to our facility. Out of town adoptions are fine as long as you travel to us to adopt and commit to return if need be.
