Additional adoption info
Please note that we are a volunteer run organization, and due to the large volume of applications, inquiries, phone calls, emails, and messages received we may not be able to provide a detailed, personal response to every single one. For that reason, formal applications will be given priority over the aforementioned.
Our adoption process:
Step 1: Complete application
Step 2: Your adoption coordinator will conduct a vet check to ensure your existing pets are up to date on medical needs
Step 3: If approved, you will be contacted by an adoption coordinator to schedule an initial phone screening to further discuss your needs, preferences and lifestyle as you look for a new family member
Step 4: A home check will be scheduled during which an adoption coordinator will meet with all residents of your home to identify and discuss any risks or concerns
Step 5: Upon completion of a successful home check, we will conduct a meet and greet to ensure dogs get along
Step 6: Begin 1 week sleepover with your new potential family member
