Some trainers, behaviorists, owners, breeders and shelters use temperament testing as a way to assess the temperament
of an individual dog as a candidate for
adoption, therapy or
assistance animal work, search and rescue, or other
purposes.
A child must also be a citizen
of the United States to receive a state funded
adoption assistance payment when the child is being brought into the United States for the
purpose of adoption or being placed outside
of the United States, or a territory or possession thereof.
