Please read carefully.
We ask that you do not apply unless you are fully prepared for our adoption process and aligned with our mindset. These dogs come from difficult circumstances—they may have been born on the streets, left to fend for themselves, or have experienced abandonment, neglect, and often abuse.
Our organization’s goal is to find the right homes for these dogs, not simply the “perfect dog” for a home. We seek adopters who truly want to rescue an animal and offer them a second chance at life. While we value your preferences and will work with you to find the most suitable dog for your home, we cannot guarantee that every dog will meet every expectation. These animals need understanding, patience, and love as they adjust to their new lives.
You must also understand the commitment and patience required for a dog rescued from the streets. These dogs are not typically domesticated pets, so we cannot guarantee that they will be potty-trained, able to stay home alone, refrain from barking, or walk perfectly on a leash. They may also not immediately get along with children, cats, or other pets. Some dogs may be more accustomed to household life, especially if they were previously pets before being abandoned, but each dog is different.
The essence of rescue is to be there for the dog, not the other way around. Of course, we ensure the rest of your home is safe, and we would never rehome a dog with known behavioral issues without fully informing you first. Our primary goal is always to find the best possible home for each dog.
Although most of our adoptions have happy endings, there are times when dogs take longer to settle, and families struggle or even give up. This often happens when families aren’t fully prepared for the responsibility, or they prioritize their own needs without considering how the dog may feel. You must be ready to invest in your dog—whether that means working with a trainer, showing patience, building a bond, or teaching your children to respect the dog’s space.
If you are committed, it will work. Don’t make excuses; maintain positive energy, and your dog will sense it.
Rescue dogs make loving and rewarding family members. It’s incredibly fulfilling to watch them grow in confidence and appreciate the simple joys in life that other dogs may take for granted.
We hope you get the chance to experience this!
