Save Our Scruff
Our Mission
Save Our Scruff is dedicated to preventing overpopulation as well as stopping the cycle of abandonment/neglect while also providing aid/support due to these concerns. We provide care and rehabilitation for stray, abandoned or displaced dogs. We strive to position ourselves as a leader on matters that promote and improve the welfare of dogs through enhancement, protection, care, education and advocacy.
Adoption Policy
SOS’s regular adoption application process involves the following steps:
Getting to know you. Fill out the adoption application and pre-interview questionnaire. We will also check vet (if applicable) and personal references, and will ask for virtual home visits or photos.
Interview. If we believe the adoption is a good match, a member of our adoption team will reach out to you for an interview.
Meet & greet. You and all members of your home will have the chance to meet the dog (potentially virtually). This is a great opportunity to ask the foster any questions.
The official stuff. You will be sent the adoption contract to review and sign. This is also when you pay the adoption fee.
Adoption trial. Each adoption will have a trial period before the adoption is finalized. See how your scruff settles into your home and routine.
The good part. After the adoption trial, you will receive your Adoption Certificate.
