Adoption Requirements and Pricing

PLEASE READ:  

We only adopt in the state of Ohio and have been rescuing dogs for over 37 years, specializing in dachshunds.  We are not a shelter / kennel, so there is no facility you can visit.  Our dogs are in private foster homes.  

Applicants are required to have a secure, physically fenced-in yard, (not electronic or invisible fence).  

If you have a pool, it needs to be separate from the area the dog has access to .

We require a vet reference and a home visit prior to adopting our dogs.  

Applicants care to be 25 years of age or older.  

We may consider adopting to a family with children over 6 years of age.

Our adoption fees are as follows:

Puppy to 1 yr - $500

1+ yrs to 4 yrs  - $450

4+ yrs to 8 yrs - $400

8+ yrs to 12 yrs - $300

Over 12 years - donation

Applications are received through our website only.

Please note: Each dog we receive into the rescue generally costs about $1000 to address their needs. and prepare them for adoption.
