The homestudy process is pretty easy, it is the waiting to be matched that is ahrd
We have two large Golden Retrievers and we had no problems with them during the homestudy. They also love to greet people in a rather joyful way that can involve some jumping and licking but it was not a problem. We did have to fill out a form for that gave our vets name and showed that they were up to date with shots. That was part of all the paperwork you will need to fill out. If you have any other questions let me know, we are in Ohio and using an agency in Ohio.
