At Hope’s Haven Dog Rescue Foundation, all adoption applicants must complete a detailed application and pass a multi-step screening process. This includes reference checks, a virtual or in-person home visit, and a phone interview. All adopters are required to sign a formal adoption contract that outlines their responsibilities and our expectations for lifelong care. Similarly, all fosters must complete an application and agree to terms through a signed foster agreement. We take time to ensure that every match is appropriate for both the dog and the adopter, prioritizing the dog’s long-term success in their new home. All dogs are fully vetted, vaccinated, and spayed or neutered (or contractually required to be sterilized when age-appropriate) before adoption. We provide full transparency regarding each dog’s behaviour, medical history, and any special needs. Our adoption process also includes continued support and guidance from our team, especially for dogs undergoing training or rehabilitation. We are committed to ensuring each dog transitions safely and happily into a permanent, loving home.
