OUR ORGANIZATION
Chesapeake Rescue of WI is a group of volunteers dedicated to rescuing
Chesapeake Retrievers and finding them loving forever homes. We rescue
adoptable purebred or mixed Chesapeake Retrievers from shelters, strays, and
from owners who can no longer care for their dogs. We are staunch promoters of spaying and neutering, and no dog is placed by our organization without this being done before placement. We also want to educate potential adopters about the breed to make sure a Chesapeake is the right dog for their family. RESCUE PROCESS We are not a shelter or a kennel-all of our dogs are in foster homes, where they are evaluated for temperament and training needs, and are given proper medical attention. We usually keep a dog for at least 2 -3 weeks to give us the best knowledge of their needs. Owners wanting to surrender their dog will be asked to have them spayed or neutered and brought up to date on their vaccinations. Owners must also sign a form giving us all rights to the dog at time of surrender, as well as a release to obtain all of the dog's medical files. ADOPTION PROCESS Adopters will be asked to fill out an application. We will then do a phone interview and set up a home visit. From there we will begin the process of matching a dog to the needs of that particular family. After a successful match is found, adopter will be asked to sign an adoption contract and pay an adoption fee, which will cover the spay or neuter, updating all vaccinations and HW testing and shelter release fee, if applicable.
"Our organization does not adopt to homes with electric underground
fencing."
"Aggressive, highly excitable dogs or dogs with a high prey
drive (Chessies), may be so intent on chasing after a squirrel or another dog
that they bolt right through the shock zone, and, once on the other side and
possibly trying to return home are reluctant to cross back over the
boundary.
There is also the possibility of another dog entering and
attacking your dog. Add to that scenario a child wandering into the yard
during this attack. And there is also no protection if someone wants to
take your dog from your yard while it is unattended." Many dogs are being
taken for fighting bait, as well as sold to medical research.
