| Adoption Information |
| If you are interested in adoption, this is what the process involves. Step 1: Obtain and fill out an application. You can find this below. Please fill out an application even if you do not see a dog that interests you right now. We will keep your application on file and see if new dogs coming in fit your needs. There have been times when we were able to match a person to a dog just based on the information you have already provided us. Step Two: Send in your application and please be patient. We will process them in the order they are received. Please remember we are a volunteer organization - we might not be able to move as fast as we would like. If you feel you cannot wait for a dog, please read these following links for tips on finding dogs elsewhere: How to Select a Breeder How To Select a Rescue Group Step three: AFTER you have submitted an application, we will arrange for you to meet the dog you are interested in. We will explain our contract at this time also. To view a sample of our Adoption Agreement (Contract) click here In all cases, the final placement decision is based on suitability of each dog for a particular home. Placement will not be made until the application has been approved, and the home visit completed. We reserve the right to refuse an applicant. Our contract stipulates that if, for any reason, you can't keep your adopted friend, s/he must come back to our group! Because of this, we tend to be very thorough and particular in our adoptions. Typically we do not place our dogs in homes with very young children - although we will consider families with children who are considerate of animals. We typically place our dogs in the St. Louis and surrounding areas. We will consider placement outside of this area, unless a note appears on the particular dog's bio. We do not ship dogs - you will have to come to St. Louis to pick up your new dog. If you have questions please contact us. Adoption donations typically varies from $175.00-$300.00 for our dogs. All of our dogs receive: rabies, DHLPP and bordetella vaccines, spay/neuter, worming, flea preventative, treatment for any known illnesses or medical conditions, microchip ID, and heartworm test/preventative. Along with their new pet adopters receive: a book Taking Care of Puppy Business: A Gentle Approach for Positive Results by Gail Pivar & Leslie Nelson, heartworm preventative, a Premier martingale collar (safety collar), a buckle collar, and a leash. ** Please note that when calling us all long distance calls will be returned collect.

| Why do we send our dogs home with Premier Collars? Because they are one of the best collars to ensure your dog's safety and your peace of mind. The Premier Collar offers limited closure to lessen the risk of a dog backing out of a collar. It's safer than traditional choke collar and better than a buckle collar. We advise our adopter to use buckle collars only to carry ID tags and attach leashes to the Premier or to a Gentle Leader Headcollar. They come in a wide range of collars and we usually have many on hand. You can special order leashes to match as well. If you are interested in the Premier Collar or the Gentle Leader please click here for more information. |
