It means that someone is suppose to be sending a deposit for the pup if they don't it will go back up for sale with breeders or that some one has put in for it but they are being checked out first if it is a rescue

It means an application has been approved, but the final papers have not been filled out yet (and the adoption fee hasn't been paid).
It's not considered ''adopted'' until the papers are filled out & the fee is paid. A lot of times, people will fill out an adoption application, then change their minds, so it's only ''pending'' until the decision is in writing.
With dogs, it may be **adoption pending** until the rescue is able to do a home-check and decide to complete the the adoption process.

It means a family is in the process of filing for adoption. The shelter or rescue generally doesn't take additional applications if an adoption is pending. Unless there is a glitch somewhere that causes the adoption to be rejected, the dog will have a new home.

That usually means adoption has started. If I get a call i ask for a oney ordeer and to be mailed next day. so I will put adoption pending because sometimes that moneyorder doesn't come through

Someone has applied to adopt her, but the organization is doing background/home checks and making sure all is in order before allowing the adoption to be finalized. Sometimes shelters will also label a dog 'adoption pending' if the paperwork is finalized but the dog is awaiting a spay/neuter, etc.

It means that it's pending--the agency is working on some other paperwork before they can let the adoption go through.

It means that she has some applications on her and the Humane Society is reviewing them to see if the homes would be a good fit. It doesn't always mean that she will be adopted though. So send in an application anyways just in case! Thanks for adopting!

It means that someone is in the process of adopting a dog, but doesn't have the dog yet-paper work, home visits, etc. are still being checked out.

i guess your refering to the rescue dogs?
it just means they are perhaps, fixeing the dog,
and it should be ready once the vet has checked it out etc
and people have signed the paper work for the adoption
pending just means , waiting
