Are you trying to place a dog in a new home? A thorough adoption application and interview are important screening tools. (use my adoption application in the menu bar)

  • I look for someone with a good pet history of neutered pets, flea and heart worm preventatives, indoor homes and a lifetime commitment.
  • Vet your dog first (spay/neuter, shots, worm) and ask an appropriate adoption fee that covers your expenses. Free dogs have no value, so the higher adoption fee usually assures a better quality home. 
  • Advertise on your Facebook page, on Petfinder.com or in your local newspaper. Go to my rescue page (on this blog) for a good adoption application! 
  • Don't be afraid to say "no, it's not a good match," if you don't approve the potential adopter. 
  • With a good picture and bio of the dog, the right adopter will come along!
