Our rescue Shelties are kept in a home environment to better evaluate their needs.
When our rescue's foster homes are full, we encourage the owners of Shelties that must be surrendered to keep their dogs in their home while we assist in finding prospective new owners.sheltie
We rescue and receive Shelties from many different situations, so some may come with baggage; however, it is nothing that cannot be overcome with proper training and lots of love! If you are willing to give the time and have the patience, then the Sheltie is willing to give you love and companionship.
We will provide medical updates and spaying or neutering to all Shelties before placement. We will provide education on responsible pet ownership to all and particularly to first time adopters. If you desire a puppy Sheltie, which we do not often get, please contact us for references to responsible breeders.
Create an alert and get notified with newly adoptable pets that meet your criteria.

Additional adoption info
We will accept any Sheltie in need, with the exception of those that have shown serious aggression to people. If the released Sheltie has a medical problem, it will be evaluated by a veterinarian, and it will then be determined if it is possible to proceed with treatment and placement.
All owners of Shelties surrendered to the Rescue must fill out and sign a release form. All pertinent paperwork, ie. vet records, etc., should accompany the dog, if possible.
We will accept Shelties from New Hampshire. We ask that when a Sheltie is being surrendered by an owner, he/she deliver the Sheltie to us. If a Sheltie needs to be rescued from a shelter or other environment, we will pick up the Sheltie or have a prospective adopter contact the shelter, etc.
An adoption contract/application must be completed for all Shelties placed. Fees will be adjusted for age and/or other special conditions. All Shelties will be spayed or neutered before placement and will be current on vaccinations.
If for any reason, and at any time the adoption is not working out, the Sheltie(s) must be returned to us.
We do not ship our rescue shelties out of state. We prefer adoptive homes to pick up their Shelties.
