R.E.A.L. Rottweiler Rescue – Adoption Application

  • R.E.A.L. Rottweiler Rescue – Adoption Application

  • Thank you for your interest in adopting a dog through R.E.A.L. Rottweiler Rescue. Please review your application carefully before submitting to ensure all information is complete, truthful, and accurate to the best of your knowledge.

    Please note that dogs seen on Facebook, our website, or other pet listing platforms may not always be available at the time of application due to various factors, including medical or behavioral considerations.

    Adoption fees range from $250 to $850 and are nonrefundable. These fees typically include age-appropriate veterinary care, spay/neuter, microchipping, and heartworm testing. Adopters are responsible for all future and ongoing medical care.

    This application helps us determine the best possible match for both you and our dogs. Please answer honestly, there are no perfect answers, only the right fit.

    All adopted dogs require a decompression period to adjust to their new home. This means giving your dog time and space to settle in, observe their new environment, and feel safe without added pressure. While every dog is different, we ask adopters to be prepared to provide a calm, low-stress environment for at least the first 30 days. This step is essential in helping your new dog successfully transition into your home.  If you can not accomdate the 30 day decompression period, please do not apply.

  • Did you complete our optional Dog Matching Quiz?*
  • If the dog(s) you are interested in are no longer available, would you like us to continue screening your application for other dogs (current or future)?*
