Four Feet & a Heart Beat's Adoption Policy
At Four Feet and a Heartbeat, our goal is to ensure every dog is placed in a safe, loving, and well-matched home. As a no-kill dog rescue based in Lacombe, Alberta and serving Western Canada, we take responsible placement seriously—without making the process overly complicated. Before reaching out, please review the following policies: - Adopters must be 18 years of age or older. - We adopt primarily to Alberta and neighboring provinces, though out-of-province adoptions may be possible if transportation is arranged and paid for by the adopter. - A pet-safe home is required. Some dogs may need 6-foot fencing based on observed behavior (e.g. climbing, prey drive, etc). - Our adoptable dogs are spayed/neutered and fully vaccinated (5-way, Rabies, and Kennel Cough). - We do not adopt dogs for breeding, resale, or as gifts. - Adoption fees vary by dog and help cover food, shelter medical care and ongoing support. We rely on self-selection to help identify the right matches and ask that prospective adopters review the adoption agreement and dog bios before contacting us.
