A “Typical” Blue Dog Rescue Story:  How the Process Works

Adoption Process Information:

As of 3/1/2008, our adoption fee is $165.00, which includes spay/neuter, age-appropriate vaccinations, vet exam, microchip implantation and microchip registration fee with Home Again. Typically, our average costs per dog are much higher (around $300). We make up the difference with fundraisers, generous donors, and sponsorships.

Homes with fenced yards are strongly preferred, but exceptions are made based on the size, age and activity level of the dog.  An application is required and a home visit will be conducted before an adoption is final.  Blue Dog Rescue does not adopt to homes where a pet has been abandoned in the past or where there are currently un-sterilized, adult dogs or cats in the home.
