New Digs for Dogs...A Canine Placement Agency's adoption process

1.

Submit Application

On our website you can go to the Adoptable page and click on application. http://newdigsfordogs.com/adoptable-dogs

2.

Interview

Usually the interview can be combined with a home visit.

3.

Meet the Pet

We like to have the potential adopter bring their other dog to a neutral territory and see how things go.

Additional adoption info

We require a potential adopter to complete an application that includes vet references and information on the type of dog owner you have been in the past. Most times we require a fenced yard as most our dogs have been strays and we want them to remain in secure loving forever homes. We do home visits when possible. We also reserve the right to refuse an adopter that we feel might not be a good match for a particular dog.

Our adoption fee is normally $125, however, there are times when it might be higher.

About New Digs for Dogs...A Canine Placement Agency

Our agency has over 50 years of combined experience volunteering with rescues and shelters and we have excellent resources for helping dogs to find their best home yet and their last home -- forever! There is no better reward than a dog meeting his new family for the first time and knowing he has at last found a real home. When we receive pictures of him months later with a relaxed face or having fun...that's motivation to keep doing what we love...we're selfish that way!

We foster all of our dogs in great homes until the day they are ready to meet their new owners.

Our dogs are current on all vaccines and will be spayed or neutered prior to going to their new digs. We always try to do home visits to make sure our dog is the best choice for a potential adopter and we do check references! We want to make sure our pups are placed in an environment conducive to their needs and will fit into your lifestyle. Most times we do require a fenced yard but we have made exceptions for the right home. Contact us for an adoption application and we'll be happy to dig one out for you.

We are a registerd non-profit.

New Digs for Dogs...A Canine Placement Agency's adopted pets

Adopt a Pet is the easiest way for you to search for a new pet in Murphy, NC.

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.
