Got kids or pets in the house already?

  • Children must be at least 6 years old. We will make some exception for children as young as 4 with a proven record of strong dog leadership

  • Children cannot be scared or anxious around dogs.

  • Current pets in the house must be spayed/neutered and up to date on all of their vetting (including shots, flea/tick meds, heartworm preventative)

  • Current pets should be well socialized and have little to no behavioral problems

 

  • You must provide a current copy of your lease

 

  • The lease must clearly state that dogs are accepted into the property

  • The lease must show that the dog will not be rejected into the apartment based on breed size or for any other reason based on the landlord's oppinion - rather than vetting paperwork

 

If you do not have a lease with your apartment or the lease do not meet the requirnments a signed and dated letter from the landlord will be also accepted.

Don't live on Long Island?

Do you rent?

We do out of state adoptions!

 

  • You must be willing to drive to the foster home in order to meet the dog.

  • We do not ship or transport dogs anywhere but to a foster home.

  • We will ask a volunteer or rescue group in your area to do a home check for us.

  • We require that you send us photos of your home -- videos are even better!

We have the right to deny any adoptions in order to find the best home for our pup.
