Animal profile review checklist
Give a named reviewer a practical final pass before animal information moves into public view.
A profile should be warm and useful without turning uncertainty into certainty. Hold the change when the source or reviewer is missing.
01
Source and freshness
- Every material statement has a current source.
- The latest foster update has been checked.
- Medical or behavior context is dated and attributed.
- Newest source checked
- Last staff review
02
Unknowns
- Unknown fields still say unknown.
- No inference is presented as an observed fact.
- Missing context has a named follow-up owner.
- Unknown fields
- Follow-up owner
03
Public wording
- Language is specific, humane, and free of unsupported promises.
- Internal notes have not leaked into public copy.
- The profile does not imply a placement decision or applicant ranking.
- Wording to revise
- Internal-only detail
04
Gate decision
- Approve, hold, or request changes.
- Record the reviewer and decision reason.
- Keep the public profile unchanged until approval.
- Decision
- Reason
