Maryland Animal Rescue, Inc.'s adoption process

Additional adoption info

The first step in the adoption process is to find a dog who might be a good match for your family and complete a NON-BINDING application, either online or at an adoption event. If you see a dog listed on Petfinders or our website who appeals to you, we encourage you to apply online. If you have questions prior to completing an application, feel free to write us at marylandanimalrescue@aol.com.

Once your application is received, it will be promptly reviewed and you will be contacted within 48 hours. The next step is to visit with the dog at an adoption event or a privately arranged meeting. Please bring a hard copy of your completed application with you. If you decide to pursue your interest in a particular dog after meeting him/her/them, you will be interviewed at the meeting. It is important for all family members to be present for the interview/s unless prior arrangements have been made.

After the interview process, home visits are done for the applicants selected. The process generally takes about a week from start to finish. Please note: Applications are not approved on a first come first serve basis; rather, the home that seems to be the best fit for the dog is chosen.

The purpose of the application process is to find the best fit for dog and person/family. You may submit one application for multiple dogs.
You must be over the age of 21 years for your application to be considered.

Our adoption fee for all dogs and puppies is $275.00. Dogs will be fully vetted prior to adoption, which includes: basic shots, spay/neuter and microchip. If a dog is not spayed or neutered prior to adoption (due to medical reason or age), a refund of $100 will be made upon proof of spay/neuter.

Our adoption area covers the VA/DC/MD Metropolitan area.

About Maryland Animal Rescue, Inc.

Mission
Who We Are

Adopting a friend
To adopt a dog from Maryland Animal Rescue, please notify us by email of your interest. We will send you a no-obligation application. Part of our process is doing a home check with the dog to make sure the environment is safe and so that you can have interaction with your potential new family member in your own home.

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.
