Adoption Process 

Carefully consider if you are ready for a dog. The dog you adopt is a LIFETIME commitment.

• Meet the Adoption Criteria​
  • You must be an adult who can maintain a household and provide references. 
  • Have a suitable, fenced yard prior to bringing your dog home. We will only do ONE home check so please be ready.  We do not adopt dogs to homes with electric fences. 
  • Provide necessary vet care & training if any issues arise. 
  • Allow a 30 Day adjustment period. 
  • Advise us immediately if any problems arise. 
  • We appreciate updates and photos! 
• Fill out the Adoption Application. 
  • You MUST complete an application and be approved before meeting any of our dogs.
  • Please allow at least 48 hours for us to review your application. It typically takes a week to fully process your application. 
• Allow us to conduct a Home Check. 
• Once your application is approved, meet foster dogs. 
  • You MUST bring ALL members of the family, including your own dogs. 
• Pay the adoption fee of $250.00.  NEW- The state is now requiring us to collect 8.25% sales tax on all adoption fees.
  • This fee helps recover some of the cost of:
    • Shelter release fees
    • Vet Care
    • Medications
    • Food
• Sign the Adoption Contract

Adoption Policy 

We place our dogs into the most suitable home according to their temperament and needs. It is not unusual for multiple families to be interested in the same dog at the same time. We commend your desire to save a rescue dog!
