Other Departments
All animals are spayed or neutered before they leave our facility, including puppies at 8 week of age. Adopter must be employed or have income from another source. An adoption application must be completed and a home visit made prior to adoption. A fenced yard is required if the dog can run faster than you, regardless of the size of the dog. People adopting must have all of their current domestic animals spayed or neutered. We do not adopt animals for hunting or to have their tailed docked or ears cropped. We retain the right to refuse adoption to anyone where we do not feel the adoption would be in the best interest of the animal. Though we have a colony of feral (wild) cats, we rarely have domestic cats for adoption. For cats, please contact the cat shelters Purrfect Pals in Arlington (360) 652-9611 or Homeward Bound (425) 488-4444 in Woodinville.

Fees


All spay/neuters are done before the dog/puppy leaves our sanctuary. Post-surgery healing time will vary based on the individual dog. Generally, if you have no children, male dogs may be taken home three days after surgery and females dogs five days after surgery but these times will difer depending on the healing process. If you have
children, the waiting times are longer.
