Dog Adoption Application

Dog Adoption Application

Thank you for your interest in adopting a dog through Strong Hearts Dog Rescue! This application is designed to ensure that you are aware of the additional responsibilities associated with dog adoption, assist us in identifying the type of dog that suits your preferences, and help us match you with the right dog companion. It is crucial to provide all relevant information in this application. Keep in mind that popular dogs may attract over 100 applications, and we prioritise contacting the most suitable applicants first. Your responses guide our decision-making process, and if you are not selected, it does not reflect on your suitability as an applicant. We understand that not everyone is a natural wordsmith, but we appreciate your effort in providing thorough responses.
