Cairn Rescue League's adoption process

Additional adoption info

Please see our website - www.cairnrescueleague.com
- for an application and further information. Once you are matched to a dog in our program, we will begin to process your application. We will check three personal references, a vet reference, and conduct a home safety visit. Once those are successfully completed, you will have a chance to talk to the person who is fostering the dog you've been matched with. The process usually doesn't take longer than 2 weeks, but the Cairn Rescue League is run by a small group of volunteers. We strive to be responsive to your wish to give a cairn a good home, but we also appreciate your patience!

About Cairn Rescue League

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.
