Adoption

Looking to adopt?  Take a look at our adoption requirements and pricing to start your path to rescuing a pet of your own.

As an animal rescue, we do not have a history on most of the animals up for adoption since we rescue them and they are usually labeled as strays.   We can only tell you their behavior since they have been with us.  We do not know the specific breeds of each dog and we can not guarantee their age.  Once again, because they are rescued we have to guess as to what they MAY be a mix of and what age they most likely are.

Requirements

Completing an application is the first step towards bringing your new best friend home.  Potential adopters will be subject to a phone or face to face interview, a home visit, and reference checks, including veterinary.   All family members, including canine, living in the home must meet the dog/cat prior to adoption. 

We do not adopt on a first come, first serve basis but try to match the best home for each animal.  We reserve the right to deny a potential home if we feel it is not in the best interest of the animal and does not necessarily reflect our feelings about you as a pet owner.
