My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

PLEASE NOTE: The first step in the process is to complete an application on our website roversretreat.org

Ferdinand is still looking for his furever home

This cutie is the life of the party! We rescued Ferdinand, affectionately known as Fern, from Animal Friends of The Valleys shelter a few months ago. He settled right in and has been loving life.

Fern is around 4 years old with the heart of a puppy! He loves everyone he meets. He had the best time at the market event this past weekend and was making friends with all the people and dogs that passed by.

He is incredibly social and will thrive in a social home, ideally with someone around a lot to give him tons of love and maybe even kids… He loves being the center of attention

If you’re interested in adopting Fern please complete an adoption application on our website roversretreat.org

📍Ferdinand is being fostered in Huntington Beach but can be adopted anywhere as long as you can come to SoCal to meet/adopt and drive home. We do not ship any of our dogs

PLEASE NOTE: Fern's adoption fee is $500

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We rescue dogs and place them in foster homes until they are ready for adoption. We vaccinate, spay/neuter, microchip, and provide any additional care such as surgery or rehabilitation. We help each dog get ready to be placed in a happy forever home.

Potential adopters are asked to complete an online adoption application and may be visited by one of our volunteers to do a home interview. We aim to find the best fit for each dog's needs.

Our adoption fees range between $400-$1,000 for domestic dogs and those from Mexico. Dogs are assigned an adoption fee based on several factors such as age, breed, health and behavior, amongst others.

For our international dogs from overseas, adoption fees range $800-$2,000. International adoption fees are higher due to the travel and boarding costs, as well as the above-mentioned factors for domestic dogs. These dogs stay in their country of origin for weeks, or sometimes months, prior to being able to travel.

More about this rescue

Rover's Retreat was born out of a need to be an advocate for dogs who can't speak for themselves. Rover's Retreat dog rescue is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization staffed only by volunteers. All vet bills and costs are covered by tax-deductible donations from people just like you.
