Short ‘n Sweet Dog Rescue takes in dogs that are in shelters or heading towards shelters due to their home situation changing. All dogs taken in are spayed, neutered and given vaccines and any medical attention they need. We strive to match them up with caring families that will love them for their entire natural lives. All dogs are spayed or neutered! We discourage casual breeding of dogs . . . even purebred dogs!
Once you are sure you are ready for a new family member, email us for our Adoption Application. It is Short ‘N Simple to fill out. We will ask for at least 2 references that have been to your home. Once your application has been screened, we will call you or email you to arrange a visit with your prospective new family member. Our adoption fees will vary some. In most cases, we ask for a donation of at least $200.00. This will cover normal vetting of a dog that comes in healthy We Spay or neuter which costs us $90 – $125. Plus we vaccinate DA2PP & Rabies, AND we microchip & register that chip to the new owner! Occasionally we will allow a dog to be adopted for less, (some dogs come into our shelter already spayed or neutered!) occasionally we ask for more. Puppies will normally require a $250.00 donation. They are much more labor intensive & expensive to keep here. We only try to keep on top of our actual expenses…we do not currently have any paid workers!
