Adoption Process

If you are selected to adopt the dog for which you specify on your application, you will be contacted. If you are not selected, you will NOT hear from us as we do not have the resources to respond to every single application. We do keep applications on file for 6 months, so if you see another dog of interest, let us know and we will consider your application again at that time.


Submitting an Adoption Application does NOT guarantee or commit you to adopting a dog.


Once an application is approved, you will be contacted to arrange a meet and greet with the dog(s) you are interested in.
