Thank you for your interest in adopting one of our dogs. This application is the first step in an adoption process that may lead to a new best friend becoming part of your life!
Each application is carefully evaluated to ensure the best match possible for each dog and each adopter. We try to understand all that a home might offer, based on all of the information in the application, interview, references, and home visit. Adoptions applications are approved or denied solely at the discretion of our board of directors.
After you fill out and submit this online application, one of our adoption
counselors will follow up to talk about your application and take the next
steps to adopting your dog. If you have not heard from us within 3 days,
please send us an email
to check whether we received your application.
Starting December 1, 2015, applicants who live outside
of the East Baton Rouge, West Baton Rouge, Livingston, Ascension, and Iberville
parishes, will be charged a $25 fee to complete the home check. This fee is payable via paypal when the home check is scheduled. This fee covers volunteer gas costs to drive from Baton Rouge.
We also have a printable adoption application
if you would prefer to fill it out by hand and mail it to us at
