Scottish Terrier Rescue of Florida's adoption process
Additional adoption info
Applicants must complete an extensive application to begin the process. Applications are reviewed, the applicants are interviewed via phone, vet and personal references are checked. A home visit is the final step in the approval process. Approved applicants are placed on a waiting list. We do not adopt on a 'first come, first serve" basis. We find the best fit for the dog. Our standard adoption fee is $450, but may be reduced because of the dog's age, physical condition, behavior, etc. All of our adopters complete an Adoption Agreement that outlines our expectations and specifies the dog be returned to us if things don't work out.

About Scottish Terrier Rescue of Florida
We are a breed specific rescue for Scottish Terriers and cover the entire state of Florida. We do not have a shelter, but we have foster homes throughout the state. All fosters are vetted the same as adopters. Dogs are usually placed in a foster home for at least two weeks. During that time, we provide all vet care/treatment and evaluate their behavior. The foster's input is key when placing a dog in a new home. All of our money is spent on the dogs - no volunteers are paid. The majority of our Scotties are owner surrenders for various reasons. We felt there was a need for a rescue in Florida to help rehome these dogs.Scotties aren't for everyone, so we prefer our applicants have previous experience with the breed. We all do what we do out of love for our Scotties!

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.
