National Brussels Griffon Rescue, Inc. is a 501c3 not-for-profit organization. We rescue Brussels Griffons who have been abandoned, lost, abused, or for other reasons must be re-homed.
Each of our rescued Brussels Griffons are lovingly cared for in the private homes of our nationwide network of unpaid and very dedicated volunteers who rescue Griffs in need.
Our adoptable Griffs live with our volunteer foster families for as long as it is necessary to find the perfect forever home for each and every one of our Griffs.
Many of our volunteers work full or part-time jobs, and have family obligations, along with caring for their own Griffs and the foster Griffs in their homes, so please be patient with us during the adoption process.

National Brussels Griffon Rescue Adoption Process
Adopting a Brussels Griffon through National Brussels Griffon Rescue, Inc. (NBGR) is a thoughtful and deliberate process designed to ensure the best possible match between our rescued Griffs and their forever families. While the adoption process may take time, we can assure you that the wait is worth it for the right Griff companion!
Complete the Adoption Application
The first step is filling out our adoption application. This vital step allows us to learn more about you and helps us achieve our primary goal: matching rescued Griffs with homes that best fit their needs and the lifestyles of their adoptive families.
Preparation:
Carefully read the FAQs about our adoption process.
Review the rescue dog’s biography thoroughly before applying to ensure compatibility.
Have the following information handy:
1. Contact information for your veterinarian.
2. Two personal references. Preferably not family members.
3. Contact information for your landlord (if applicable).
Before completing the Application:
For additional information read the introduction to the application(s) you are completing before proceeding.
Complete the Application:
Answer all questions completely and honestly. Incomplete applications will not be processed.
After submitting your application:
You will receive an acknowledgment email with a copy of your application attached if it is complete.
If incomplete, you will receive an email indicating the missing information. You can return to your application by signing in with the email and password you used to start it.
Foster Care Network:
NBGR relies on a nationwide network of volunteer foster homes that care for rescued Brussels Griffons until they find their perfect forever homes. These foster families provide love, care, and insight into the needs of each Griff, helping us make the best match.
Adoption Fees:
NBGR, like most rescues, asks for an adoption fee. Adoption fees range between $300 and $800, depending on the dog’s age, health, and emotional condition. Reduced suggested donations may be offered for senior or special needs dogs.
Adoption fees are not tax-deductible, but any amount given beyond the requested fee is tax-deductible under IRS rules.
NBGR is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, and adoption fees and donations help cover veterinary care and other expenses for the dogs in our program.
Matching Process:
Our adoptable Griffs are not placed on a “first come, first serve” basis. Each rescued Griff has unique needs and activity levels, and our foster families work to understand these details intimately.
If your application is not a match for a particular dog, it will remain in our database for future opportunities.
Please note that not all available Griffs are listed on our website, as many are matched with families from previously submitted applications.
Volunteers and Commitment:
All NBGR officers, rescue coordinators, and foster families are unpaid volunteers who dedicate their time and energy to rescuing and rehoming Brussels Griffons. Their work is a true labor of love.
Adoption coordinators work diligently to find the best homes for each Rescue. Any abuse directed toward our volunteers will not be tolerated.
Thank you for considering adoption through NBGR. While the journey to adoption may take time, finding the perfect Griff for your family makes it all worthwhile!
