Our adoption process is designed to ensure the best match between dogs and families.
Applicants must be at least 18 years old. The process can take up to 4 weeks from start to finish, with the primary delay being scheduling the home visit.
Complete the adoption application form with information about your household, pet history, and living situation.
A volunteer contacts your veterinarian to confirm all household pets are current on vaccinations and preventatives.
An adoption coordinator schedules a phone interview to discuss your experience, lifestyle, and expectations.
A volunteer visits your home to ensure it's a safe and suitable environment. All household members and pets should be present.
Approved adopters are matched with a dog and receive a two-week trial period to ensure a good fit.
A fenced yard is not required, but you must have adequate space for exercise. Electronic/invisible fences are not accepted.
Yes, all household members and pets must attend the meet-and-greet. This helps us ensure compatibility for everyone.
Returns are accepted during the two-week trial period. Dogs must be returned to the rescue — they cannot be rehomed independently.
We cannot guarantee the pedigree of any dog. Dogs are selected based on temperament, not solely on their looks.
Dogs over six months are microchipped, vaccinated, and screened for parasites. Puppies under six months are adopted with age-appropriate vaccinations and a requirement for alteration by seven months, with a $75 refund upon proof of spay/neuter.
