Our Adoption Process: A Step-by-Step Guide Thank you for considering adopting one of our rescues! We are committed to finding the perfect match for each of our dogs and their potential families. Here’s how our application process works: Submit Your Application After you submit your application, our team will review it as promptly as possible. You can expect to hear back from us within 15 business days, though times may vary depending on our current volume of applications. What Happens Next? Option 1: Denial If we determine that it’s not the right match, you will receive a denial. While we don’t disclose specific reasons—to maintain the integrity of our selection process—we appreciate your understanding and encourage you to consider other adoption opportunities. Option 2: Specific Approval Upon approval for the dog you applied for, you’ll have 24 hours to respond via email or preferred text using the number provided. Due to the high interest in our dogs, we require a non-refundable deposit to hold your chosen dog. This policy ensures fairness to all applicants and our dogs waiting for their forever homes. Option 3: General Approval If the dog you applied for has already been adopted, you’ll receive general approval. This means you can select another dog within 6 months without submitting a new application or paying another fee. Keep an eye on our website and let us know when another dog captures your heart.
