I understand that the NGSDCS may charge an adoption fee to cover direct and indirect expenses incurred in their rescue and breeding program, and that all new owners will be required to sign an adoption contract upon the transfer of any NGSD.
 *
I understand that there is absolutely no guarantee made or implied that any person requesting to adopt a NGSD will be able to adopt one. Rather, all adoption applications are subject to acceptance based on a review process that may require collecting information from references.

All decisions on placing NGSDs in adoptive and foster homes are based solely on the judgment of the volunteers of the NGSDCS and adoption applications submitted through this form are often denied for various reasons. The NGSDCS reserves the right to make all decisions regarding placement or final disposition of any NGSD in its care whether in, or being placed in, a foster or adoptive home or other facility. 

*Note that some of the dogs posted on
the NGSD discussion list and Facebook page are posted by other third parties and the NGSDCS has no control over how those NGSDs are placed.
