ADOPTION PROCESS

COVERAGE AREA

We are located in Eastern PA, between Allentown and Pottsville. We do adopt to families outside of PA in surrounding states such as NJ, upstate NY, OH, DE, MD, VA, VT, NH and other New England states. However, interested adopters must make an appointment & travel to our location with their entire family (human & canine) to meet prospective dogs. We do not transport our dogs to adopting families.

ASK QUESTIONS

Please feel free to E-MAIL US if you would like more info on a dog or if you have questions. We'll do our best to reply in a timely manner.

Please understand that the dog you are interested in today may already have applications pending. We

process applications promptly, but do not adopt on a "First Come, First Served" basis. Rather, our goal is

to match each individual dog with the best possible home. If you have submitted an application, and the

dog you were interested in is adopted in the meantime, don't be discouraged. We take in new rescue dogs

frequently. With your approved application already on file, you will be able to schedule a Meet & Greet right away with any new dogs that fits your preferences.
