PRESTON (aka Mr. Dreamy) came into our program with his companion Lucy when their owner was no longer able to provide for their care.  We are told they are about 7 years old.  After much needed dentals, they would love to find a home (TOGETHER) that will appreciate them for the wonderful shelties and companions they are.  Both are very overweight after being fed a poor quality and unlimited amount of kibble, but are still quite active; therefore, we will want their adopter to follow through with additional monitoring on their diets and provide the additional exercise they need to eliminate those extra pounds.




*** PLEASE READ ***


If you want to inquire about a specific SHELTIE waiting to be matched with a perfect forever family of their own, please fill out our on-line ADOPTION APPLICATION .


PROCESS OF ADOPTION: 

After we have had time to review your application and check references, we will be back in touch with you.  This is a totally volunteer organization; therefore please allow at least 48 hours for us to get back with you. If at that time you have NOT gotten a reply, please e-mail us as your application may not have arrived. (ALL APPLICATIONS WILL BE ACKNOWLEDGED, WHETHER APPROVED OR NOT.)

After your submitted application has been processed, references checked and approved, a HOME VISIT will be scheduled after which time arrangements will then be discussed regarding meeting your potential new family member.

Adoption fees range from $150-$275, based on the age/adoptability of each specific dog.  HOWEVER, please inquire about our SENIOR  SANCTUARY PROGRAM  if you are open to adopting a dog in double digit years.  We believe these SPECIAL individuals and families deserve even more consideration/support and we make every effort to make these adoptions a WIN WIN for both our DOG and POTENTIAL FAMILY.
