How to Adopt

Before you go any further, there is some important information you must review. We hope you understand it is important for us to go through some procedural matters prior to submitting your application!

Please print this page out and keep it for future reference as you are completing your adoption application.

We have implemented a "recommended donation structure" as information for potential adopters.  These amounts are negotiable, but serve to provide a ballpark figure.  Please remember, donations and fund raisers are the sole income for our organization.  All funds are used exclusively in returning these gentle animals to good health and finding appropriate homes. All of our members volunteer their time and transportation services and we receive no compensation.

All adoption contributions include spay or neuter and all vaccinations as of the adoption date.  ECGRR will disclose any known health issues before adoption.

Our 2009 average expenditure on each rescued dog taken into our program was $320,  with 97% of the monies being used for medically treating these surrendered and homeless dogs including heartworm treatment and spay/neutering. 

Please be generous with your donations.  You will be richly rewarded.
