Our Adoption Process

Our adoption process is fairly simple. We will email you an adoption application or you can complete the one here online (sorry currently out of order). We will review your application within 24 hours. We then contact a local rescuer in your area. They will call you and schedule a time that is convenient for you to do a brief home visit. If all goes well with the application and the home visit we then will work on scheduling your new dogs transportation.
