Additional adoption info
Our adoption process consists of an on-line application, available on our website, www.animalserviceleague.org, included in which we will ask for both veterinary and personal references as well as general pet-related information. Applications submitted will be acknowledged promptly, and references processed as quickly as possible. We do in-home visits for applicants living within one hour's drive from Dowagiac and require home photos from "long-distance" applicants, which are described in our acknowledgement. Upon preliminary approval of the application, an appointment is scheduled for the applicant to come meet the pet. It is highly likely that the adoption can be concluded at this meeting, and that you can take your new "fur kid" home that very day! Adoption fees are: $195 for all purebred puppies and adult dogs; $145 for mixed breeds. "Senior" dogs (age 8 and up for large breeds and age 10 and up for small breeds) are discounted 25%. There are also discounted fees for senior adopters (25%) and in-county (Cass County, MI) adopters.
