All of our dogs are in private foster homes, so an application for adoption must be completed before a meet and greet with the dog can be scheduled. We do not have a physical shelter that can be visited. All applications will be reviewed by the adoptions committee. If more than one application for a dog is received, the dog will be matched with the best possible home. We adopt to indoor homes only. Adoption fees are $250 for spayed or neutered puppies and adult dogs, $125 for senior dogs, and $350 for puppies to young to be altered, with $100 refunded to the adopter upon proof of spay or neuter.

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.
