Is a Rescue Dog the Right dog for you? So you’ve decided to open up your heart and home to a rescue orphan. On behalf of every rescuer and every rescue dog out there, we thank you for your kindness. But we want to make sure that every orphan, once out of our care, goes to his or her FOREVER FAMILY. So with that in mind, we’ve put together this information for you to diligently weigh the pros and cons of a rescue dog. We’re not trying to discourage you from adoption, in fact, quite the opposite. But you need to know all the good and the not-so-good so that you can make the informed decision on whether to continue with the adoption process. Continue reading

Adoption Process: Our adoption process starts with obtaining information about a potential adopter via an application.Click here for application. If the application is approved and the adopter has chosen a particular dog, then arrangements are made for an introduction. At that point, we provide a trial period for up to 10 days. This provides us and the adopter time to make sure the adoption will work out. Sometimes when other pets are involved, it's hard to know until the new pet is actually in the home. Should there be problems during the trial, the dog is returned to us, the adoption fee is returned to the prospective adopter, and the adoption contract is destroyed. Should the trial go well, the adoption is finalized. Should problems arise sometime later, the dog is returned to us, but the adoption fee/donation is then non-refundable. We ask a minimum of $150.00 donation to help us offset our expenses.
