K-9 Lifesavers

The adoption process is almost always completed within one week of time you submitted your questionnaire (times can vary depending on your location, the dog’s location, and availability). Please, note that we do receive large number of applications for certain litters, and as much as we would like to, we can't always get back to everyone. We appreciate your understanding as all volunteer run organization. Fill out an adoption questionnaire, found at https://k-9lifesavers.org/howtoadopt (please note, completion of the Adoption Questionnaire does not guarantee adoption- it is the first step in our adoption process). · An adoption counselor will call you to review your application. · The adoption counselor will call your reference, landlord/condo association, and veterinarian (if applicable). · The entire household should be willing and present for a home visit. · The adoption counselor will schedule a time for you, your family, and any other pets to meet the dog(s) you've applied for. Once approved, you will need to finalize your adoption by completing an adoption contract and paying the adoption fee in cash or check. At that time, available medical records will be provided along with a variety of other information. ADOPTION FEES · Young Adult Dog (7 months to 7 years) - $400 · Puppy (6 months and younger) - $500 · Heartworm Positive Dog - $450(This fee includes treatment for heartworm) · Golden Year Dogs (8 years and older) - $300 Adoption fees cover basic vetting, rabies, distemper/parvo vaccinations, treatment for worms, heartworm testing, monthly heartworm prevention, monthly flea/tick prevention, and our transport costs.
