Anchors Aweigh Animal Rescue's adoption process

Additional adoption info

We have a thorough adoption application(no fee)upon reviewing the application we will do a phone interview. Then if all is well we may schedule a home visit and a meet and greet. Then at that time if potential adopters are in love with the animal we will proceed with finalizing the adoption.

Dog Adoptions: $150-250
Cat Adoptions: $100-125


Reduced adoption fees are applicable in certain situations.

About Anchors Aweigh Animal Rescue

My name is Melissa and I am the Executive Director. I started small and have been rescuing on and off for 15 years. We made the plunge to go 501c3 so that we can accept donations and be able to help more in the community by pulling shelter animals when they are going to be euthanized. We are in the process of being approved. We do this because we love animals and feel that we can help with the homeless animal problem we are facing as a city. If interested in volunteering or fostering see our website. www.anchorsaweighanimalrescue.org

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.
