Ohana Rottweiler Rescue's Adoption Policy
Our adoption process includes a formal application, followed by a meet-and-greet to ensure compatibility between the adopter and the dog. If approved, adopters participate in a guided lesson to help prepare them for the dog’s needs and set them up for success. Once finalized, we personally deliver the dog to the adoptive home to ensure a smooth and supported transition. This structured process allows us to prioritize proper placement, responsible ownership, and long-term success for both the dog and the adopter. We welcome all potential adopters and evaluate each application on a case-by-case basis. Our goal is to ensure the best possible match between each dog and their future home, taking into account the dog’s needs, the adopter’s lifestyle, and the long-term success of the placement. We remain open and inclusive while prioritizing responsible and appropriate matches for every animal in our care.
