Petfinder no longer allows for HTML links. NOTE: All blogs(scroll to the very bottom and then read upwards) and our PetFinder animal lists are kept utd so yes, BHRR's Sophie is still available. Please do not EMAIL asking such, and please go to her detailed individual blog to read about her before contacting us. Almost all of your questions will be answered in her thorough blog. READ the blog from the bottom up once on the blog. Please familiarize yourself with BHRR's adoption mandates, processes plus policies before contacting us about a BHRR animal. Our PetFinder and our www.birchhaven.org websites will answer most of your questions. Therefore, do not contact us asking us what our policies are, what our adoption area is, or what her adoption fee is. BHRR is a federally registered NPO operated solely by Volunteers. We are NOT a shelter or a pound. You CANNOT just drop by to visit her. She resides in a loving foster home, not a kennel, and BHRR has a thorough adoption process to determine if any home is a right match personality fit. When submitting your completed adoption application contract - found on our home website - for BHRR's Sophie, please include a short introduction regarding your home, etc. We DO NOT respond to inquiries to adopt via Petfinder nor any emails/phone calls. We ONLY will consider completed applications along with the non-refundable application fee. NOTE: WE also will not respond to any emails that only ask a one-liner or re: adoption fees. The adoption cost(from a r/q Rescue) or purchase cost(if you purchase from a reputable/quality Breeder is the LEAST that you shall pay over the lifetime of proper care of your pet)

Birch Haven Rescue & Rehabilitation Services's Adoption Policy

**NOTE: As of December 1st, 2016; BHRR shall no longer be responding to any inquiries to adopt. We are following the lead of other r/q organizations, and ONLY completed adoption applications submitted to the BHRR BOD shall be considered/responded to.** BHRR requires an application/contract to be filled out, personal references including a vet reference, if applicable, and a home visit(almost always the dog(s) come to the home visit depending on location) completed before being approved to adopt a BHRR animal. We also require that at the time of a home visit, after successfully completing the application process up to that point that the whole family, including any other currently owned animals, are present at the time of the home-visit. BHRR only places per best-matched personality fit. We also require that within four months of having adopted your new addition that, at least one full round/session of group classes of obedience (they can range from 6-18 weeks) must be started, and upon completion, proof (registration + completion) must be submitted and with having your signature on the adoption application/contract; you will be in a legal breach of your contract should this not be done. The animal involved will have to be returned promptly & safely to BHRR at your own expense. Please contact us with an introduction attached to your completed application/non-refundable processing fee, which must include some details about you, your family if applicable, current pets, where you live, etc. to be considered for a BHRR animal. We will no longer be responding to inquiries that do not have a completed application/non-refundable processing fee attached to their introduction. We will not consider homes that DO NOT have a properly fenced-in yard. The fenced-in yard must be directly accessible from at least one door of the house. Please note that we do not consider electrical fencing, barbed wire, invisible fencing, outdoor kennels, hedges, bushes, trees, or dog ‘runs’ appropriate fencing. We do not do ‘conditional adoption approvals’ based on fencing. Please do not contact BHRR if you do not meet this requirement and we shall no longer be responding to applications/inquiries that do not meet this requirement, and any non-refundable fee that has been attached shall no longer be refunded. NO EXCEPTIONS. *If you live in an apartment or condominium, we will consider those applications on an individual basis. *If you do not own your home and are renting, a written + signed letter of Permission from your Landlord and/or Landlady must be submitted along with your signed application. The letter must also indicate that the Landlord/Landlady is ‘aware’ of what a Giant Breed is. Applications submitted without this attached letter shall no longer be reviewed. NO EXCEPTIONS. *We will not adopt out to Students, regardless of age. NO EXCEPTIONS. *If you have re-homed an animal or brought one to a Shelter, Pound, Rescue, etc; unless the circumstances are mitigating, such as death or accident; we will not consider your home. Some of the top reasons why animals end up in Rescue are due to people having children, moving, renting, cannot afford the bills, did not do any research on the breed and became overwhelmed, the dog grew too big, having a new job, did not do obedience, break ups, did not socialise, did not have the time, going to University/College, getting married, etc. and as our priority is to the animals under our authority; we will not adopt out to homes without mitigating factors. NO EXCEPTIONS. *WE DO NOT place any dog with a family with children under the age of 8 unless the below additional conditions/requirements have been met to the satisfaction of the BOD of BHRR. Only then shall the BOD of BHRR consider those homes that have children younger than the age of 8, yet they must be over the age of 5: a) ONLY homes that have no more than two children shall be considered if said children are under the age of 8 and over the age of 5 b) ONLY dogs that BHRR deems most suitable for homes with children within these ages shall be considered c) ONLY homes that have prior suitable breed type experience ie, Great Danes for a Great Dane possible adoption or a Saint Bernard for a Saint Bernard possible adoption, shall be considered d) ONLY homes that have no more than one dog already and that dog must be a right-matched personality fit; shall be considered should any children be under the age of 8 and over the age of 5 e) ONLY homes that have all family members in attendance for the home visit and only those same homes that have all family members come to BHRR to meet us shall be considered BHRR stresses that children and dogs should NEVER be left unsupervised together! NO EXCEPTIONS. *This is a legal, insurance, and moral obligation/responsibility that we will adhere to.
