Additional adoption info

We match each family with a dog best suited for their situation. All dogs have their own needs, energy levels and are at different stages of training. Upon review of your application, we guide you toward dogs that match your family and lifestyle to ensure the dog receives the most fulfilling, enriched life.

Fill out an adoption application.
A member of the adoption committee will go over your application and contact you with questions.
Once approved, we will set up a meet and greet with potential adoptables.
If the meet and greet goes well, we will set up a time to do a home visit and finalize the adoption. The adoption fee is $300.00. After the adoption is finalized all pertinent documents, tags and medical records will be transferred to the adopter.
