Thanks
for your interest in Fox Terrier Rescue.
The procedures we follow are:
1. Fill
out the adoption
application and send it back (email or snail mail is fine).
2. The
applications are read and then we strive to match a rescue dog that
will fit your needs/desires and also be beneficial to the dog as
well. Dogs are NOT placed on a first come/first serve basis.
The application is lengthy because we work hard to match dogs
in forever homes.
3. A
home visit will be scheduled at a time that is convenient for you.
If possible, the rescue dog will come as well.
4. The best family for that particular fox terrier is chosen after
an evaluation of all factors.
5.
Once
we decide on a dog for you, we will arrange transportation.
6. The new family will asked to sign an Adoption Contract and provide
a donation (around $150). Donations are applied towards
veterinary costs (all dogs are up to date on shots, spayed/neutered,
wormed and on heart guard heartworm prevention, most are also groomed).
7. Fox Terrier Rescue will make routine follow-up visits
(either phone, email or in person) to assure that the forever-home
be successful and to resolve any questions before they become problems.
8. All new adopters agree to return the dog to Fox Terrier Rescue
if any conditions prevent them from keeping their adoptive dog.
