Why Should I
Adopt a Dog?
When you adopt, you are doing far more than you know. By saving just
one dog, you free up a foster home for another rescue. This, in turn,
saves the life of one more shelter animal, allowing another high-risk
dog a place of welcome refuge.

Adoption Fees Range Widely: below are some general guidelines
- Adult Dogs - starting at $350
- Puppies - starting at $550
- Sponsored, donation, or price matched dogs offer lower costs opportunities
-Please read the profile for more fee information
Our adoption fees vary based on various factors such as the dog's age, size, etc.
