ADOPT

We are a foster-based rescue which means we don't have a specific facility. We mainly have foster homes throughout Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.

Yes we do! We are to adopt dogs to homes throughout Atlantic Canada. Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, PEI and Newfoundland.

The process can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks. It all depends on the availability of our volunteers. We ask that you be prepared to adopt soon as your application is finalized (unless you are doing a pre-approval). We don't put dogs on hold.

Our adoption fees are:

• US puppies under 8 months = $700 CAD (If pup is not spayed or neutered, contract must be signed, and adopter gets a $100 refund upon proof of surgery.)

• US dogs over 8 months = $650 CAD

• US dogs 9 years and up = $450 CAD

• Local dogs who were already vetted = $450 CAD

• Local dogs who needed vetting = $650 CAD

• Local puppies too young to be spayed or neutered= $650 CAD ($100 refund will be given upon proof of surgery.)

• Local dogs 9 years and up = $400

The adoption fee for US dogs includes rabies, Bordetella, DHLPP vaccinations, and 4dx heartworm test which also tests for tick diseases like Lyme. They will be dewormed and on preventatives for fleas, ticks, and heartworm. They will be spayed and neutered (if old enough), and also will have a health check done by a vet before transport. Also included is transport as close as we can get the dog to you on my trip through NB and NS after picking up the dogs.

Locally surrendered dogs will be up to date on vaccines (we do them every three years, not every year), and they will be spayed/neutered. Preventatives and deworming given as necessary.

Most definitely! When filling out an adoption application be sure to mention that it's for a pre-approval. Applications for specific dogs already in our care are top priority. However, we will try to match pre-approved applicants with incoming dogs or keep a lookout for a dog from one of our rescue partners that may be a great match for your family.

We only allow meet and greets with approved applicants. So, the first step is to fill out an adoption application. Once that is processed and if you're approved, we will help set up a meeting with the dog.

Unfortunately, we are not able to connect with every single application for every dog. We have a small team of volunteers and simply do not have the capacity. If you haven't heard from us in a couple of weeks, feel free to message us on our Facebook page to check on the status of your application.

We will keep your application in our files! If you see a dog that you would like to apply for, no need to resubmit an application. You can email or message us about the dog and be sure to give us any updates that we should take into account.
