Dog Orphans Inc.'s Adoption Policy
When you come to Dog Orphans and have chosen a dog to adopt, we will ask you to fill out an adoption application. All members of your family will have to meet him/her before your application can be approved ( all family members do not have to come the first day of meeting the dog),  this includes other dogs in the home (once we call your vet regarding the care of your current dog). No appointment is necessary to come and meet our adoptable dogs during business hours once available. Hours are Mon-Fri: 10am-4:30pm. Saturday: 10am-4pm  Sunday: 10am-3:00pm Adoption fees are $430.00 for adult dogs and $490 for puppies. All orphans are up to date on rabies vaccines, distemper, heart worm test, stool samples, microchipped and are spayed/neutered before adoption. We do not offer same day adoptions since we want to encourage the best match possible. Please review our adoption process on our website and we welcome any questions you have by phone or email at info@dogorphans.com.    90 W
