We only adopt within PA and will usually choose and adopter within an hour of the ranch in Windsor, PA. There are exceptions for further than an hour but we do NOT adopt out of state. Are you a resident of PA?

Please understand that if you do not own your own home or have children under the age of 5 we cannot approve you to adopt. These rules were put in place after issues with landlords and to protect young children and also rescue animals who are already stressed and may not be able to deal with a "busy" household. Thank you for understanding and wanting to help an animal in need. Please tell us how you heard about us! *

Please give us a short description of what you are looking for in your forever friend. Tell us what you know about the breed?*

Please describe your lifestyle. What do you like to do? How many hours a day are you actually home? If you have children what is their activity level like? etc....*

If you live more than 45 minutes from Elizabethtown, PA please be aware you will be asked to email photo's of the inside/outside of your home and yard where the foster dog will live and play. A photo of your family and present pets will help the foster make a connection with you. Also we require a 2 visit system which means, if you are one of the 3 applicants chosen to meet the foster dog you will be invited for a visit and then if you are chosen you will need to return at a later date to pick up your new family member :-) We will NOT adopt to parents as a surprise for their child. All children must be 5 years or older. The whole family must be present for the visit and any dogs you already own must be introduced to the foster dog so that we can assess personalities before you will be considered for adoption of one of our dogs. Do you understand and agree to these stipulations?
