Yes. As long as we can arrange to have a home visit done and you agree to come here to pick up the dog, we can adopt out of our area. However, priority will be given to local adopters – especially with puppies.

No, but for some of the higher energy dogs, we will discuss your plan for sufficient potty breaks and proper exercise. We realize there are many resources for dog owners in this area, where a fence is not required. However, be prepared to walk a dog anywhere from 3-4 times/day, for at least 20-30 minutes. We also realize different dogs have different exercise requirements, and the interview process will ensure a right fit between the dog and adopter.

Yes. We will need verification from your landlord stating you are allowed to have a dog, and we verify if there are any size restrictions and breed restrictions.

We try our very best to find the best home for our dogs, and a good match between the dog’s personality and the adopters environment. The first criteria is to ensure a good fit, and to ensure an adopter can provide proper exercise and care of the dog. We try to be as open and honest about the selection process as we can.

Absolutely. If the dog you originally apply for gets adopted, we will help you find a great match for your family. There is no need to reapply or to start the process over again.

Unfortunately, because our dogs turn up at rural shelters without full histories, we cannot guarantee a dog’s breed. We usually have no idea who the parents are, although sometimes we know the mom of our puppies. We make an educated case based on size, coloring, and physical characteristics.

While we cannot guarantee the size of a puppy,  we make an educated guess based on the puppy’s current size, current age, and the estimated breed mix. In cases where we know the mom, her size also helps in guessing on the size of the puppy.
