Cristene Justus is the founder of Double J Dog Ranch, Inc. She shares her 50 acres and home in Hauser Lake, Idaho with the animals. The dogs experience a home environment vs. institutional living. They receive care from a dedicated team of professionals, including health care, nutrition and behavior. DJDR are firm believers that to help ensure the successful placement of blind or deaf dogs they must be trained in basic obedience. Therefore, all of the dogs are trained in the appropriate manner (hand signals or touch) prior to being adopted. Of course this would not all be possible without the support of their volunteers, board of directors, adopters and financial supporters.
If you are interested in adopting one of our special dogs, please send us an email or give us a call, we welcome the opportunity to talk about our dogs! Download our adoption application and complete the form. Please note that we require a fenced yard and you must be at least 25 years of age to adopt a dog from DJDR. Upon approval of your application, we will contact you to set up a meet and greet. The next step is a sleep over and if all goes well, we will complete the adoption process with our adoption agreement. Please keep in mind that we do not do same day adoptions and that we may receive several applications for one dog. In that case, our adoptions board will pick the best match for the dog. We do allow out of state adoptions. Our adoption donation is $100.00 for a fully vetted dog. This will help the sanctuary cover costs of caring for the dogs. Vetting, feeding, special therapies are just some of the expenses that your donation goes towards. We feel this is a very reasonable fee and of course we are happy to except a larger donation if you so choose.
