How adopting works
Three steps, and we help you through each one.
You fill in a questionnaire, we talk, you meet the dog, and the dog goes home with you.
Three steps to a new best friend.

1
Fill out the adoption questionnaire
Most of our dogs live in foster homes, so the first step is the questionnaire, which you reach from the page of the dog you are interested in. We reply by email within a few days. If you do not hear from us, check your spam folder, or call.

Talk with the foster, then meet the dog
If you are a good match, we will connect you with the dog's foster to talk more, then set up a meet and greet with the dog.

Home check, then welcome home
All adopters agree to an initial home check and annual follow-up calls throughout the life of the dog. We take our role of placing dogs in a new home very seriously, and do everything we can to ensure the dogs we place are well cared for throughout their lives.
Every dog arrives ready.
Every dog receives excellent care. Each dog in our program receives a thorough veterinary exam upon intake. The senior dogs also get a senior blood panel and, in many cases, a dental cleaning and any necessary extractions. Each dog is altered, microchipped and vaccinated.
Adoption fees range from $155 to $305, depending on the age and health of the dog and the expected future medical expenses that will be taken on by the adopter.
