In the shelter’s words
There is truly nothing more frustrating in dog rescue than when we get a call from a shelter that a dog who is microchipped to us has been located but the owner is not responding. That’s what happened to Winston. Winston got adopted as an older puppy 8 YEARS ago. We know who adopted him. But they are ignoring us. So we can only assume that he was dumped. Winston is about 9 years old. He’s a brindle mutt with a gray muzzle. He’s very sweet and his tail wags gently but he’s so confused. He lived 8 years with his family & now they are gone. Winston needs a forever home. He needs a family who appreciates him & will love him for the rest of his life. He is good with dogs, great on a leash & is a gentle soul. Please consider opening your home to Winston. He needs to spend his golden years with the security of a forever home. Winston is part of our Senior Soulmate Program. If he is adopted by a senior citizen, a generous donor will sponsor his adoption fee.

Shelter-listed fee: 200
Applicants must fill out an application at www.adoptapitrescue.org/apply. We screen all applications, with approved applicants passing a vet and landlord check. All pets in the home must be spayed/neutered and up to date on all vaccinations and on year-round heartworm preventative. Non-homeowners must have permission from their landlord to have a dog. Once approved, we schedule a home visit, where an adoption representative takes the dog to the adopter's home to see if the dog is a good fit for the family and other pets, as well as verify the home is a safe environment for the dog. If everyone feels the dog is a good fit, a contract is signed, adoption fee is paid, and the family takes possession of the dog, unless other arrangements are made. Typical adoption fees are $175 for adult dogs and $200 for puppies. We reserve the right to charge different fees for "designer" breeds. All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, heartworm tested, and on heartworm preventative at the time of adoption. All dogs have been examined by our veterinarian and given a clean bill of health at the time of adoption.
