WE are RESCUED FOR LIFE, a 501(c)(3) federal non-profit charitable animal rescue based in Aurora, Co. We are committed to the rescue, rehabilitation and re-homing of dogs who might otherwise be euthanized in shelters. Once a dog has entered our program, we make certain that dog has been rescued for life.
STEP ONE: Think it through. Do you have the time, energy and resources to devote to a new pet? Are you committed to caring for the dog for the next 10-15 years? Do you know what kind of pet would be best for your household? STEP TWO: Browse our website and choose a potential candidate. If you see a dog you like, please fill out the Adoption Application Form. After we have received your application, we will contact you to arrange a meet and greet, followed by a home check. If you decide to proceed with the adoption, the board members will need to approve the adoption. STEP THREE: Adoption Contract. Once approved, you will need to finalize your adoption by completing an adoption contract and paying the adoption fee in cash, check, or with PayPal (see list of adoption fees at the top of the page). At that time, available medical records will be provided along with a variety of other information. STEP FOUR: Rescued for Life, Inc. is committed to the dogs it rescues for their entire lifetime. Therefore, once a dog is adopted, RFL reserves the right to: Check on the dog at any time to ensure its well-being; Remove the dog from the home if any conditions of the adoption contract have been violated or, if in the opinion of RFL, the environment is unsafe. If at any time you cannot keep the adopted dog, you must return it to Rescued for Life, Inc. and not to any other individual or shelter.
