My story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Duke (Lab mix) and Rizzo (German Shep mix) are great dogs in need of a new loving home.  Their owners have had some changes to their family that they feel doesn't allow them to give Duke and Rizzo the time and attention they deserve. 

Currently the dogs are not up for adoption at Safe Haven, instead we are 'Courtesy Listing' these dogs here on our website to assist the owners in finding a new home.  The hope is to prevent them from having to come into the shelter later this summer, so we are helping by listing the dogs here to help find a new family.  We have met the dogs in their home in Williamsburg, and can confidently say these two pups are great dogs and we hope we can find them a new family to take them in!  

Duke (5 yrs. old) and Rizzo (7 years old) get along with men, women and children.  They are both neutered and the family reports they are up to date on all vetting and will provide vet records to their new family.  Duke and Rizzo have no health concerns noted and sure appear to be healthy, happy dogs!  There are no cats in their current home, so we are not sure about cats in a new home.  Their current family has had them for their whole lives, and naturally would LOVE for them to be able to stay together if at all possible - but are willing to separate them if needed. 

If you are interested in meeting Duke and Rizzo - please contact us and we will assist in making that happen!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

It is the policy of Safe Haven of Iowa County that all animals adopted from our facility will be spayed or neutered upon adoption, or the adopter will sign a spay/neuter agreement and follow up with veterinary records once the operation has been complete for puppies and kittens. We firmly believe that controlling the animal population is the only way to reduce the population of animals in rescue facilities such as ours and those shelters that do destroy animals for no reason other than overpopulation. It is our policy that adoptions are conducted a minimum of 24 hours after your initial visit with the animal and submission of the adoption application. This allows us time to call your references, perform home inspection as well as giving you the opportunity to sleep on your decision and make sure it is what you really want. Compare the adoption fees below with the routine animal health care and spay / neuter costs you would have to pay. Without the generous help of the local veterinarians we would never be able to include such services at this fee. We have the right to refuse ANY adoption for ANY reason. Dogs & Puppies: Adoption fees include spaying or neutering (if under 4 months a voucher is provided for surgery at one of our participating veterinarians), heartworm test, distemper, rabies, worming, ear cleaning, flea control if needed. Fee: $200.00 Cats & Kittens: Adoption fees include spaying or neutering (if under 4 months a voucher is provided for surgery at one of our participating veterinarians), FeLv and FIV testing, distemper, rabies and worming, ear cleaning, and flea control if needed. Fee: $50.00 All puppies and kittens adopted without spay/neuter completed will have a contract stating the animals will be altered by the time it is 6 months old. Follow up calls will be made to confirm completion of surgery.
