Rescue FAQs

Honesty, integrity and trust: these are the three pillars of The HIT Living Foundation, a Los Angeles-based animal welfare organization. Founded in 2018, this 501(c)(3) nonprofit primarily focuses on dog rescue, rehabilitation and re-homing, as well as spay/neuter programs abroad. With open hearts and minds, HIT Living brings compassion to their work in animal and human welfare, as well as providing financial and physical assistance during times of crisis. Though the organization itself is only a few years old, their successes continue to mount. Here at home, they have placed over 55 Los Angeles shelter dogs in loving forever homes across the nation, in addition to having 59 dogs currently in foster care in Los Angeles. Meanwhile, abroad they have participated in 3 spay/neuter clinics in Abaco, Bahamas and provided anesthetic medication for 100 spays/neuters at a clinic in Matanzas, Cuba. In the disastrous wake of Hurricane Dorian, the HIT Living team was on the ground in the Bahamas, operating their own full clinic, which fixed 70 dogs and cats, provided free vet care for 30 dogs and cats, adopted out 5 dogs, and implemented search and rescue missions for strays, as well as flying 16 dogs to the United States for adoption.

🐾 About Our Adoption Process

HIT Living Foundation is a foster based rescue dedicated to placing each dog in the right home for life.

All adopters must complete an application and home video tour. Please allow at least 48 hours for our volunteer team to review.

If approved, an adoption coordinator will contact you for a phone interview and coordinate a virtual and or in person meet and greet with the HIT dog and any dogs in your home, if applicable.

A virtual home check is required. In some cases, an in person home check may also be requested.

Out of state adopters must be able to travel in person to pick up their dog.

If we mutually determine it is a great match, you will be asked to finalize the adoption with a signed contract.

–––––––––––––––

💛 Adoption Donation
Adoption donations help cover the cost of rescue, medical care, foster support, and rehabilitation, and allow us to save more dogs in need.

All dogs are spayed or neutered, microchipped, and current on vaccinations.

Adoption donations typically range from $550 to $800 and vary based on age, medical needs, and care required.

Donations are tax deductible and due at the time of adoption. Fees are non refundable.
