The Adoption Process.

This page will explain the whole adoption process from start to finish. Please read carefully before applying to adopt.

All of our adoptions begin by you completing an adoption application.

Once filled in this form is automatically sent to one of our Adoption Coordinators, who will look at it and then contact you for a more in-depth chat –  If your application has been declined – you will be notified.

Provided you and the Coordinator are happy to proceed, we will submit your details for a home check. Whilst that is being arranged, our Coordinators will gather all the information they can about your chosen dog.

The homechecker will contact you and agree a convenient time and date for your check.  It will involve, amongst other things, inspecting the property’s boundaries to ensure they are secure, checking there are no hazards which could injure the dog and talking to you about dog adoption. Once the homechecker has finished, the homecheck is sent to your Coordinator. They will then contact you to have a further chat and hopefully finalise the adoption.

Your Vet may be contacted for a reference.

The final decision on your suitability to adopt a dog is solely at our the Coordinator’s discretion.

Whilst you may have your heart set on a specific dog, it may not be suitable for your home environment or situation, so therefore the Coordinator will discuss alternative dogs with you if necessary.

Once the right dog for you has been selected and when we know the date the dog can be transported safely and legally, we book him or her on the transport that has been discussed and is convenient with you.

All our dogs from Romania come with a registered microchip, rabies vaccine and at least 2 courses of normal vaccines. They also have snap and brucellosis blood tests.

They are wormed, de-flead and will have a Pet Passport and Health Record. If the dog is old enough it will also be neutered prior to transport.

All transports leave Romania on a Tuesday and arrive in the UK early Thursday morning.

Once the dog is in your home it is then your responsibility to ensure that dog is safe and secure at all times.

Please read all the information that our Adoption Coordinators provide during the process – this is to help you, help the adoption run smoothly and help your new dog settle into it’s new life..
