Saint Rocco's Hound Rescue's adoption process
Additional adoption info
We ask that the potential Adopter complete our application on line first and then we call them and discuss any issues that they or that we might have. After they choose a dog and it appears to be a good match, they must complete our contract. Our fee is $125 for all dogs. We have already quarantined, vetted, vaccinated, wormed and neutered all animals.

About Saint Rocco's Hound Rescue
in the early 90's a small group of concerned citizens came to the realization of how over-crowded and inadequate county shelter. We began working with the Shelter for improvements and to enlarge it. We were able to improve conditions and were able to expose the dogs to many rescue groups and eventually organize a pretty good dog transfer. However, the hounds were still left and no one was very interested so we decided to start a new rescue focusing and highlighting "The HOUNDS".

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.
