Additional adoption info

The first step is completing an application. Once approved you will be put on a waiting list and contacted when a dog matching your requests becomes available. We first offer the dog for adoption to their foster family, then to approved applicants on file, and lastly to the public through online listings.

We require an application with a veterinary and three personal references. If you do not currently have a veterinarian because you do not currently own a pet, we will contact your personal references in place of a vet reference.

After you're matched with a dog, you complete our contract, and submit the appropriate adoption donation:

HavaHeart Rescue provides our adoption fee schedule for prospective adopters. Effective September 21, 2018, HavaHeart Rescue’s adoption fees are increasing. We are adjusting our fees due to the consistently high costs of veterinary care. The new fee structure applies to dogs that come into our care on or after September 21, 2018. Some things to note:
• HavaHeart Rescue is a registered 501(c)3 charity and 100% of money raised is spent on the pups we serve.
• All HavaHeart adoptable dogs are up to date on vaccinations, parasite free, have been spayed / neutered, and microchipped.
• If a dog’s age is unknown when they come into care, we use an estimate of age provided by a veterinarian. Determination of age for the purposes of the adoption fee is at the sole discretion of HavaHeart Rescue.
• Determination of the final adoption fee is at the sole discretion of HavaHeart Rescue.
