🐾 Adoption Fees and What They Help Cover

Adoption Fees

• Puppies (under 12 months): $400

• Adults (1–7 years): $350

• Seniors (8+ years): $250

Brachycephalic Breeds (any age): $750  

• This fee reflects the significantly higher medical costs associated with brachycephalic dogs, including BOAS‑related care, airway management, and specialized veterinary needs.

• 🐩 Toy Breeds & Poodles — $750 Adoption Fee

• Many of our poodles and tiny breeds arrive needing extra love and extra vet care — from sore knees to major dental work. These little ones often cost us thousands to get healthy and comfortable again.

• The $750 adoption fee helps cover a small part of that care so we can keep saying “yes” to the dogs who need us most. Thank you for helping us give them the soft, safe future they deserve.

What Your Adoption Fee Helps Cover

Adoption fees allow us to provide every dog with essential veterinary care and support before they go home. These costs include:

• Spay/neuter surgery when age‑appropriate

• Core vaccinations (DHPP, Bordetella, Rabies when age‑eligible)

• Microchipping with lifetime registration

• Flea/tick and heartworm preventatives

• Deworming and parasite screening

• Initial veterinary exam and follow‑up care

• Any necessary medical treatment prior to adoption

• Daily care, including food, supplies, and safe housing while in rescue

• Behavioral assessment and support to set adopters up for success

These services often exceed the adoption fee itself, especially for medically complex dogs. Your support ensures every dog leaves our rescue healthy, protected, and ready for their new life.
