Wagabond Dog Rescue

Thank you for your interest in adopting! Please read further to learn about our adoption process; and see footnote for information regarding scheduling meet and greets etc, as well as longer distance adoptions. We encourage applicants to let us know specifics they're looking for in a dog (especially if open to considering multiple adoption candidates) and what their life and energy levels are like. From there, we can coordinate a meet and greet - depending on the dog and the adoptive situation, this can range from one meet and greet, to as many more as needed (such as with shy dogs, or dogs entering households where proper introduction is needed to existing doggy housemates). After a meet and greet, we do a home visit, where we ensure there are no dangers such as open areas in fencing, toxic plants, etc. If safety concerns are found, we discuss solutions with the family and a time-frame, and plan for a follow-up visit, hopefully ending in adoption. If there are no concerns (or any safety concerns are fixed), we then discuss the "Welcome Home Day" with family - which, again, depending on case by case basis, could be same day if everything is great and adopters' schedules permit, or scheduled for a later date. ***** We coordinate adoption throughout Washington, and at times Oregon and California. We can generally arrange meet and greets locally to us (Ferry County) the same week of inquiry and welcome adoption applicants from anywhere (including applicants from further areas coming to us for meet and greets). We are also able and happy to coordinate meet-and-greets, home checks, and adoptions once or twice a month to areas further than Ferry County - please check with us for more information if this might apply. Thank you for your interest in saving a life!
