Save a life. Adopt one of our amazing rescue dogs. 
Complete our easy-to-use online application now.

NOTE: please know that completing an adoption application DOES NOT guarantee an adoption.
We reserve the right not to adopt for any reason. We want the best possible match for the rescue and for you and your family.

We review every application. If we think you might be a good fit, we'll be in touch.

ADOPTION PROCESS


GOOD MATCH - based on your application we might recommend a different dog who better fits with your lifestyle and home. We'll work together to find a good match

ADOPTION FEE - we are an official 501c3 non profit. Our adoption fees help us to continue to save dogs and usually don't even cover the care each rescue needs before being adopted. Our adoption fees are:

  • $550 for puppies (up to 1 year) and high medical rescues

  • $500 for adults (1 year+)
     

HOME VISIT - someone from our team will schedule a home visit where we can see the environment firsthand and provide guidance. We are looking for a clean, safe home.
 

OVERNIGHT - once a match is made and you have been approved, we'll let you spend some time with the dog in your home to ensure everyone is happy.
 

LOCAL ADOPTION ONLY - we are located in Southern California. We only do local adoptions so we can ensure the home is a perfect fit. Sorry but not out-of-state adoptions permitted.
