Our Adoption Process

National guidelines for adopting a Saint Bernard are:
To be part of the family and considered a family member.

A fenced yard so your Saint can play at his leisure and self-exercise. No electric fencing. They do not work with Saints.

Home checks are done prior to placing the Saint with their new family.

The new family must agree to keep their new Saint current on heartworm preventive in accordance with their vets advice.

You must be able to understand the nutritional needs of a giant breed and be willing/able to accomodate their dietary needs.

All current pets in the home must be spayed/neutered prior to placement of the adopted Saint.

The new family must agree to keep current identification on their new Saint at all times.

The new family must sign an Adoption Application and Adoption Contract.

The new family must be willing to pay the adoption fee.

Some knowledge of giant breeds (not required) is a plus.

If you are a renter, you will need to include a letter from your landlord stating that it is ok to have a Saint. The letter will need to have the landlord's address and phone number on it.

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a dog or puppy versus getting dogs for sale or puppies for sale from a dog breeder? When someone is breeding puppies, they are creating new dogs who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog or puppy and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale from a puppy breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs who must find homes. So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog or adopt a puppy at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
