Adoption Guidelines

The Adoption Process

The process starts with a detailed application process. Next there will be reference checks and home visits to make sure that you and the dog are a good fit. No your home does not have to be beautiful, just a safe environment for the dog. The final steps are the signed adoption contract, and payment of the adoption fee.

Most of our adoptions occur in the Connecticut, Mass, New York, and New Jersey area, we do work with family’s outside this area, if we have a volunteer near you for a home visit.

Adoptions fees for adult dogs are 200 and Puppies are 350.

All dogs are spayed or neutered prior to adoption if over the age of 6 months (younger if it was done prior to coming into rescue). They are up-to-date on all shots for their age. And, they have been temperament tested, basic training (this excludes puppies) but our foster will try their best.

When you adopt a rescue dog, that they do not always come perfect or fully trained. Also please understand that it can take 2 weeks or more for the dog to settle into its new environment. Please be prepared to be patient. Also, we recommend that all adopters commit to some obedience training for their new dog. We will be happy to provide you with a referral to our trainer

By submitting an application, you are committing to properly care for the dog for as long as they live, which can be up to 15 years. Thank you for opening your heart and home to a homeless pitty.

If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application under the application tab on our main page. We will not respond to inquiries with out an application.
