ADOPT
WHY AN APPLICATION?
Our goal is to match you with a dog that is compatible with your family and lifestyle. Choices for a long-term animal companion should not be made based solely on looks. The temperament and energy level of the dog in question must be taken into consideration.
Other Dogs?
If you have another animal companion, you must take the extra effort required to match the personality of your resident dog with the personality of the dog you are wishing to adopt. This compatible match takes time and research – one size does not fit all; dogs have very individual needs and personalities.

Type of Dog for You?
Please consider your energy level, time constraints and space while considering adoption. If you do not have the time to train a puppy, consider an adult dog. If you live in an apartment or do not have a fenced yard, consider the time required to provide adequate exercise for your dog. In snowy, sunny and rainy weather, your dog will still need exercise. If you have never had a dog, consider fostering before making a commitment to adopt.
Application Instructions:
Please answer all of the questions fully to prevent delays in processing your application. Please include area codes, zip codes and telephone number(s) of veterinarians. Please do not skip a question; if the question doesn’t apply to your situation, simply write “N/A.”
Based on our experiences and the fact that same sex aggression is common in dogs, we do not adopt to homes where a dog of the same sex currently lives (regardless of breed). **Rare exceptions are made**
Thank you for opening your home and heart to a rescued pit bull!
