Our Mission

At Homeward Bound, we are a no-kill shelter dedicated to rescuing and rehoming dogs in need. We believe that every dog deserves a loving forever home and we work tirelessly to find the perfect match for each of our rescue dogs. Our team is made up of passionate and experienced animal lovers who strive to provide the best possible care for our dogs. We work closely with local shelters and other rescue organizations to identify dogs in need and provide them with medical attention, training, and love until they find their forever home. We are a private 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, and rely on the generosity of donors and volunteers to continue our mission of saving dogs in need.

Adoption Policy

Adoption Policies and Requirements At Homeward Bound, our animals come first. Each animal is housed in home by one of our amazing foster families. We do not have a facility. Because the animals live in our homes, we can make a better assessment as to what homes fit each animal. We do not have blanket policies but instead make requirements for pets based on that individual pet’s needs. Please be sure to read each bio on the animal you are interested in thoroughly to see if you/your lifestyle/home/family are a good fit. All animals adopted from Homeward Bound are required to be indoor pets. We do not adopt our pets to outdoor homes. We reserve the right to deny an application at any time, for any reason. Spay/Neuter All animals in our care are/will be spayed or neutered as part of the adoption process. Most of our animals are fixed prior to adoption, but in some cases, due to vet availability, a pet may be adopted with the requirement that the adopter MUST get the pet to one of our participating vet clinics by a certain date (which will be listed on the adoption contract). This appointment will be coordinated between our director and the adopter. Other animals within an applicant’s home are expected to be altered as well. As a rescue, our job is to do our part to help control the pet overpopulation problem, and that begins with responsible spay/neuter practices. In the rare instance where a pet is deemed medically unable to be altered, we may make an exception. Vet Care All animals within our care will be current on their age-appropriate vaccines as well as monthly flea/tick/heartworm preventative. Adult dogs will be tested (& if necessary, treated) for heartworm/tick borne illnesses as part of the adoption process. All animals in our care will receive a microchip which will be linked to us as secondary contact (the adopter can register their pet as the primary contact following adoption). An applicant’s current pets must be current and up-to-date on thei
