All dogs listed are in foster homes. In order to set up a meeting or learn more about a pup who caught your eye, please apply (there is no fee to apply, and no obligation to adopt). We will review your application and be in touch as soon as possible for next steps. We do not have a shelter location, all meetings are by appointment. Adoption fees are based on age, length of time with the rescue, medical costs, behavioral training, and whether or not someone has chosen to sponsor a portion of the adoption fee. We do not keep applications on file, you must apply for the specific dog you are interested in.
