Adoption saves lives—literally. Each year, around 6.3 million pets enter U.S. shelters, and sadly, approximately 390,000 dogs are euthanized due to lack of space and resources. But there's hope! With an estimated 17 million families planning to add a pet this year, we can change the story for countless animals in need—with one simple choice: adopt, don't shop.
You are in the right place! Please take a moment to review our adoption process and requirements below prior to submitting your adoption application.
Dr Beth Pet Rescue was created to rescue abandoned dogs, find healthy, loving, permanent homes for them and also create a more responsible world of pet ownership. Therefore we are adamant about vaccinations, regular vet care, socialization and spay/neutering as basic requirements for reducing the number of abandoned and euthanized pets on this planet.
Our adoption fee is $425 and includes the dog's spay/neuter, microchip and the chip's lifetime registration, full series of vaccines, start of preventatives, and any vet care the dog receives while in foster care.
All resident pets must be up-to-date on all core vaccines, unless there is a documented medical reason from your veterinarian, at time of application as well as have a verifiable history of annual wellness appointments.
All applicants must be 21 years or older.
The dog you are applying for MUST be kept as an inside dog (meaning not chained up and/or living outside in any capacity).
Our adoption radius is widely and easily deliverable across the State. All vet care that is included with our adoptions is completed here at our clinic.
Please note, we do not require a fenced yard for every dog. However, some dogs may require a secure physical fence or have specific fencing needs. Electric/invisible fences are not suitable for all dogs and will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
To begin the adoption process, fill out an adoption application. We will review all applications for each dog to make a decision about which home best suits the dog's needs. Applications are processed in the order they are received; however other applications could be considered in determining the best situation for each dog.
