Vermont Foster Dogs's adoption process
Additional adoption info
We require that an adoption application be completed prior to any meeting. Once the application has been reviewed/approved, we will set up a meeting with the potential adopter and adoptee, and if a match is made, a $250 adoption fee is required along with a completed adoption agreement. This fee covers the cost of the dog's spay/neuter operation, all vaccinations and veterinary care, and feeding and daily care while in a foster home.

About Vermont Foster Dogs
We are a VERY small group of volunteers dedicated to saving dogs who are at high risk of being euthanized due to shelter overcrowding. We work with trusted contacts to rescue dogs from municipal pounds and shelters before their time is up and bring them to their temporary foster homes in Vermont. From here, we work to find the perfect homes for these dogs and give them a second chance at life.

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.
