We do require a completed adoption application before we will put you in contact with the dog’s foster family.

Pet ownership is a serious commitment that the entire household needs to consider and agree to before the animal is adopted. We want to ensure that each adoptive household is aware of, and willing and able to accept the physical and financial responsibilities of pet ownership. Not everyone who desires to own a pet is ready to properly care for one.

The questionnaire will assist both you and us in determining if your household is prepared to assume the role of responsible caretaker for a rescued animal. Thank you for filling it out.

Do not apply if you are planning to keep the animal outside in a doghouse or a kennel.

We strive to match the dog to the family. Completing an application does not assure that the particular dog you are applying for is the right match. Nor does any order of when the application is submitted have any bearing on the decision.

We are currently unable to offer an online application. Please download either our PDF or Word document to complete and either return via email to Sue.
