We are a no kill rescue and we take our work very seriously. Please, when filling out this application and submitting your request to become an adoptive family for one of these Beautiful Souls , remember that you are adoption a sentient being. Dogs are lively, energetic, happy-go-lucky animals. They trust you, are loyal to you, will love you, and look up to you.

... HOWEVER... your new addition to your family may:

be destructive, disobey, be restless, need of rehabilitation, be clingy, shy fearfull, and more.

PLEASE MAKE SURE ADOPTING IS RIGHT FOR YOU AND THAT YOU ARE COMMITTED 100%.

Commitment means, if you start seeing problems arising in his/her behavious, seek expertise. Contact us and we will recommend many tips for you to try. Dogs need love, affection, playtime, quiet time, and axercise. It is imperative that you pay attention to your newest best friend appropriately and accordingly in order to see change in unwanted behaviour. There are many books to help you become more comfortable with dog behaviours as well as many online tools. We will always be there for you if the adoption goes through. Please remember that whatever problems you are having, you may contact us and we will do whatever we can to ensure that your family is at peace, content and remains together.

Some dogs nibble, don't like cats, or other dogs for that matter. Dogs are not allowed in all apartment buildings, but many do allow pets. It just takes effort to find the right places. Do you have hat it takes? Dogs may destroy, chew valuable materials and must eat, play, drink, and sleep. They also unfortunately get sick... Dogs live up to 15 years of age and older.

These beautiful souls cannot be bounced around and around, so please understand; this is a life you are caring for and loving. Treat them as though you have adopted a child and never allow them to be discarded again.

A broken soul looking for security, respect, values, discipline, and LOVE. Are you in this until the end, to see it throuh and adopt a Bell'Anima (Beautiful Soul)?

If you understand all of these traits of a dog, are you willing to work through all of these problems? *
