In order to be considered for adoption you must complete and return the adoption application to us for processing. Please note we require that there be a vet reference, if there is no vet reference please state that on your application. We also require 3 personal references and a groomer reference. If you list any false information on your application it will be denied.
YOU MUST BE 26 YEARS OF AGE OR OLDER TO SUBMIT AN APPLICATION!
**PLEASE NOTE**
We do not allow our pets to be adopted into a home that has an electronic/invisible fence due to tragic occurrences in the past. If you have one, we cannot and will not proceed and will not make any exceptions. This is for the safety and well being of our pets. Fencing will be thoroughly inspected at the time of your home visit
Once your application is approved we will schedule a meet and greet/home visit with the dog you are interested in. Upon completion of the meet and greet the board members will meet to discuss the potential adopters. Upon FULL approval to adopt, an email will be sent to you.
Since we are an individual, private rescue. We do not receive funds from any outside sources; we pay all expenses. Our adoption donations vary based on size, age and breed. All donations and adoption donations are applied toward caring for the dogs, veterinarian bills, supplies, food, medications, and follow-up visits.
What the Adoption Donation Covers:
Primary vaccines for an adopted dog;
Microchipping;
Spay/Neuter for the adopted dog, or other dogs under our care;
Health and veterinary care costs for all dogs under our care; and
Food and supply costs for all animal in foster care.
Although the adoption donation is a way to subsidize costs of caring for the numerous animals, it also serves one greater function. The adoption donation will put off anybody who is not willing to spend money on his or her animals. If you cannot afford the adoption donation, then you are unlikely to be able to afford care for your pet when he falls ill or has an accident.
If you won't spend it to bring home a loving companion, then it is more than likely that you won't spend it when it is really needed either. It is a harsh world out there for pets, and making sure the dogs go to a good, responsible home that will care for them for the rest of their life is the number one concern of this rescue organization.
Please keep in mind that this application is usually our first impression of you. The more information you provide, the better we can get to know you and see if you are a good match. Be sure to answer every question honestly. If you don't, it would only make for an incompatible match and nobody benefits from that. Do not simply tell us what you think we want to hear. If you have any questions please feel free to contact us before completing your application.
**DISCLAIMER** We CAN NOT respond to every single application. This is a volunteer organization comprised of 2 individuals who work full time jobs and run this organization paralleled with their own lives. Applications will be reviewed, and phone calls/e-mails will be returned as soon as possible IF APPROVED FOR ADOPTION.
