Dog Adoption Application

Love & Paws Rescue Adoption Application
Love & Paws Rescue is a volunteer-run non-profit dog rescue dedicated to saving the most at-risk dogs in Texas. We are 100% run on donations. All of our pets are cared for by foster homes and receive complete medical care, which includes deworming, vaccinations, spaying/neutering and microchipping prior to their adoption. We also pay for heartworm treatment for dogs that need it.

Adoption fees for adult dogs (older than one year of age) is $150 and adoption fees for puppies (younger than one year of age) is $200.

This questionnaire is designed to help Love & Paws Rescue determine which of our dogs is the right one for you and your household. Please understand that your application could be approved, but not for the specific dog you are interested in. Love & Paws Rescue will recommend which dog(s) we believe is best for you after reviewing your answers. We reserve the right to deny any applications.

Is there anything else you would like us to know when processing your application?
I have read and answered the questions on this application thoroughly and honestly. If an omission or untruth in the application is discovered, the adoption will be annulled at the time of discovery even if the pet has already been placed in my home. I understand that my application may be approved, but not for the specific animal that I applied for. I understand that Love & Paws Rescue's mission is to place the animal in the home that is the best fit for them, which may not be my own. I will keep an open mind if the rescue recommends another pet for my home.
