Additional adoption info

If interested in adopting; please fill out an Adoption Application located on our website animalrescuefriends.org. Once approved for the adoption there is an Adoption Contract that will be filled out. Our adoption donation fees depend on the dog (usually between $180 - $300) and we take cash and card. Most importantly is that we want to find the perfect home for our dogs!
