Our adoption process consists of:
- Completing an Adoption Application
- Veterinarian and Personal Reference Check
- Home Visit
- Adoption Fee
I Completing an Adoption Application
We screen potential adopters very carefully in order to find the best possible
match for both you and our foster dogs. All adoptions are expected to be lifetime
commitments!
II Veterinarian and Personal Reference Check
Once your references are checked, a volunteer will contact you to discuss
potential matches and to schedule a home visit.
III. Home Visit
The purpose of the home visit is to inspect the surroundings in which our foster
dogs will live, meet all household family members, address any major concerns,
and get to know you better. (We are not at your home to pass judgment on your
housekeeping skills.)
During this visit we will set up a date for you to come and meet the Boxer(s) you
are interested in (we ask that you bring your family members as well as your
existing dogs)
IV. Adoption Fee
Our adoption fee is based on the age and health of our dogs. The fee can range
from $200 - 450.00, with $350 being the average. We will not negotiate adoption
fees. This is not a "sale" but a fee that enables us to continue to help more Boxers
in the future.
Boxer will be covered for all necessary inoculations for the first year. We will
provide copies of all services rendered while the Boxer has been in rescue.
