Additional adoption info

We require an online adoption application, followed by an home check, then we match the dogs and the adopters.
We have a contract and there is an adoption fee based on the age of the dog. Puppies up to 2 years old are $500, 2 to 7 years old are $400, and over 7 years old are $300. Dogs from Turkey, China, or Korea have higher adoption fees and will be noted in the dog's bio. This helps to cover the costs of immunizing, including rabies, bordetella, and DHPP as well as spaying/neutering and microchipping
