Common Questions
What are the typical adoption fees used for?
Adoption fees vary by rescue partner but typically cover essential medical care, microchipping, and sterilization. 100% of these contributions directly support the rescues in saving more dogs as we work together to provide second chances.
Can I adopt if I live in a rental property?
Absolutely. Many of our partner rescues welcome applications from renters. You will just need to provide a letter of consent from your landlord during the home check process to ensure your new companion is approved for the home.
How do you ensure compatibility with existing pets?
Our rescue partners facilitate careful 'meet and greets' in a neutral space. Our team and rescue experts will guide you through slow introductions to ensure a harmonious and safe transition for all members of your pack.
What does a typical home check involve?
A friendly volunteer will visit to ensure your home is secure and suitable for a specific dog's energy level and size. It’s a supportive process designed to set you and your new pet up for a lifetime of happiness together.
Is there any support available after the adoption?
Absolutely! Doggies First and our rescue partners offer ongoing resources, advice, and a caring community to help you navigate life with your new rescue. We are here every step of the way to ensure your success.
