1. Why do I have to submit an application? It feels invasive.

We are contacted by potential adopters from all walks of life, some with ill intentions. We owe it to our voiceless companions to ensure they end up in a safe, stable and loving home. We do not share/sell your information to a 3rd party. Click to submit a foster or adoption application.

2. Why do I have to submit an application before meeting the dogs?
 
We receive multiple adoption inquiries for each dog and are not able to accommodate meet-and-greets with every interested applicant. To be respectful of our fosters’ time and to avoid unnecessary stress for the dogs, we first screen applicants to determine whether the match is likely to be a good fit before scheduling an in-person meeting. Click here to learn more about our adoption process. 

3. What are your hours?

Client support hours via email, text and call are Monday-Friday, 11AM-7PM. We are open for training, daycare, boarding and adoption meet-and-greets by appointment only. Click here for contact information. 

4. Do you accept donations?

Due to limited storage space, we are only accepting dry food and treats, items on our wish list, monetary gifts via GoFundMe, Venmo or Apple Cash at 206.678.6264 .
 
5. How else can I help?

Like and share our posts. Foster. We can only rescue as many dogs as we have fosters. Learn more about our foster program here. 

6. Do you take in owner surrenders?

No. Please contact the individual/organization you adopted/bought your dog from, or your local county shelter. 

7. Do you take in strays?

No. Please contact your local animal control or county shelter.
 
8. Are your dogs house trained?

We cannot guarantee a dog is house trained, even if they appear to be. All dogs need a little time to decompress and adjust to their new life and schedule with you. We ask that you show them grace and compassion during this transition. 

9. Are your dogs cat tested?

Most aren't. Even when a dog has previously done well in a home with cats, we cannot guarantee they will get along with your cat, as every cat-dog dynamic is different and depends on the individual animals, environment, and introductions.

10. I need to rehome the dog I adopted from you. What do I do?
 
As a reminder, we do not charge our adopters an owner-surrender fee. The full rehoming fee paid by the new adopter will be given to you. 
 
Interested parties must submit our adoption application so we can properly screen applicants and ensure the dog is placed in a safe, suitable home.
​
Please refer to the rehoming terms found in your adoption contract for further details and email us for next steps.
