Save One Soul's adoption process
Additional adoption info
Prior to adopting any animals, you must complete Save One Soul’s adoption application, and go through the entire approval process, including a reference check and a home visit. The approval process is very thorough and can take a couple of weeks to complete. Our adoption fee of $150.00 is payable at the time the adoption gets finalized.
If you have dogs on your own, we verify with your veterinarian that your dogs are up to date on their vaccinations for: parvo, distemper, rabies and bordatella. Titer tests, showing adequate protection, are also acceptable. Providing your dog with flea and heartworm protection shows responsible dog ownership, and we do therefore check into this as part of our routine approval process.
It is our goal to make each and every single adoption experience a great one. We will do our best to determine that we make a great match the first time.

About Save One Soul
Save One Soul was founded in July of 2016 by a group of friends who a share a love of dogs and a desire to help un-owned and shelter animals. Shelters and rescues do a very good job at adopting young and healthy dogs to the public, and there are organizations targeting cases of severe neglect and abuse. However, dogs with low to moderate illnesses and injuries, are frequently deemed not adoptable by shelters, and these dogs all too often get euthanized. It is our goal to save and rehabilitate these dogs by securing veterinary treatment and foster homes until they are ready for adoption.

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.
