Additional adoption info

The Adoption Process is simple:
*See our adoptable puppies here! If the puppy is listed, it is still available!
*Fill out an Adoption Application on our website for approval. You can not adopt -or- meet a puppy without this step
*One of our adoption coordinators will email if you have been approved for the puppy you applied for, or submitted an application for pre-approval
*Once approved, you set up a meeting for the adoption day listed on your puppy's profile.

We have a careful process that includes all puppies in foster homes in Connecticut before adoption, a meet-before-you-pay philosophy and believe in *no* off the truck adoptions.
