CC Rescue's adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our goal is to find our dogs permanent loving homes, where they will be treated as a member of the family for the rest of their lives. As such, we will be happy to work with you to help you find the right dog for your family.

Our adoption fees, which include transportation, all necessary veterinarian fees, spay/neuter procedures, and quarantine charges, generally range from $200 to $450.



Complete and submit the online adoption application. Please tell us about yourself so that we can do our best to ensure we match you with the best dog for you. We will check your references and process your application. Please be sure to contact your veterinarian to give them permission to give us a reference when we call. You will receive a phone call from us to discuss the application and answer questions. Part of our approval process may involve a home visit to discuss adoption with you and your family: this would be set up at your convenience.

About CC Rescue

Our mission is to find loving forever homes for the dogs we rescue. In the southern states where we find our dogs, the current laws do not favor animal rights. Abandoned, stray, and unwanted dogs are often euthanized after just a three day stay at a shelter, due to lack of room. Many of these dogs are sweet, loving animals. But they have been left to roam, are lost with no one trying to find them, or are dumped by the side of the road due to lack of owner commitment.



All of our posted dogs are currently living in our network of foster homes in the South and in New England, being lovingly cared for while they await their forever homes. Their fosters have a chance to observe them in all types of situations — with children, other dogs, with cats — so that we can determine if a dog has any issues that would make it suitable for only certain types of homes.


We also offer a foster-to-adopt program for approved applicants who are interested.

We always need more help from concerned individuals who want to help these dogs: volunteers can assist with home visits, transportation, fundraising and outreach. Please become part of saving a dogs life and contact us!

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

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, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
