FREQUENTLY ANSWERED QUESTIONS
WHO ARE WE?
Lend-A-Bone Rescue is a 501(c)(3) Non-Profit Organization that is working to help reduce the amount of dogs in the pound and help those especially who have a more difficult time finding a home. We focus largely on dogs that are on the euthanasia list and help find them foster or adoptive homes. We also provide assistance to low income/homeless pet parents to help keep their pets fed and healthy. At our rescue property we house some of our pups up for adoption while akk other pups stay at foster homes.
WHERE ARE THE DOGS FROM?
All dogs are rescues from local shelters, we keep them with us until they can find a home and are adopted!
CAN I SURRENDER A DOG TO YOU?
Sorry at this time we are unable to take in any dogs directly. Please visit your local shelter if you need assistance with surrendering a dog.
DO I NEED TO REACH OUT FOR A MEET AND GREET?
YES! That will help a ton as some dogs are with us but, others are in foster homes so we need to make sure they can join us when needed. Filling out an application is the best way to get things going and arranged.
WHAT SERVICES DO YOU OFFER?
We are a dog rescue run mainly by our director and her husband. We want to rescue as many dogs as possible from euthanasia We are currently in the process of making bedrooms for several of our rescues to make the best "home" like environment for all our pups. Once our second building is up and running, we will be offering boarding at a low cost for dogs who are both super confident as well as concerning pups. We work with both the best and worst kind of pups and we know they all have their needs that'll help them succeed
HOW DOES ADOPTION WORK?
You fill out an adoption application form. Once your application is cleared and approved one of our employees will contact you to set up a meet and greet with the pup. If that goes well, you would then be able to take the pup home for an adoption trial or sign our adoption contract, pay the adoption fee, and take your forever family member home!
We always allow and encourage you to return the pup to us if it doesn't end up working out.
​
***We also offer 1-2 week adoption trials for every pup, to ensure it's a right fit before the contract is signed!***
​
​
HOW MUCH IS THE ADOPTION FEE?
Adoption fee can range anywhere from $85-275 depending on the dog and it's needs. These fees help cover vet bills for the rescue and ensure our dogs go to loving forever homes that can provide for them.
DO THE DOGS COME VACCINATED?
All our dogs are current on vaccinations, microchipped and fixed. Younger pups will receive vaccinations and spay/neuter when the time is appropriate.
