The adoption process is simple. The first step is to complete the adoption
application. Our dogs are in foster homes, so we you will need to be an
approved adopter before meeting any of our dogs. Our website has current
information about our dogs, so please do not call us for more information about
our dogs.
The ADOPTION FEES vary depending on the age and breed of dog you are
adopting. The fee covers the cost of spay/neuter, vet check, heartworm test,
microchip, 5 in 1 vaccination and bordatella vaccination. Adoption fees are paid
at the time of adoption with cash or check.

If you mail it, include a $15 application processing fee payable to ALGBR. If you
send it electronically, you can send the fee via PAYPAL. or our volunteer will
collect it during the home visit.
Complete all the information on the application. Any missing information may
slow down the process. Once we have received your application, you will be
contacted within 48 hours. Your application will then be assigned to a volunteer
that will schedule a home visit.
The HOME VISIT allows us to get a better understanding of your family and your
life style so you meet dogs that fit your family. All members of your family must
be present for the home visit. During the home visit you will learn more about
our adoption process and our available dogs. If we currently do not have a dog
that fits your requirements, we will have you on our database for when the right
dog comes along. Upon approval, the home visit volunteer will assist you in
meeting our dogs and the adoption process.
The DOG MEETINGS are coordinated between your volunteer, the foster home
and your family. As we get new dogs in, we match them to adopters on our
database based on the criteria you have given us on your application and during
the home visit. Criteria such as color, age, sex and activity level will determine if
you are matched to the dog. When we have multiple adopters on the matchup list
the foster home will contact adopters in order by their application date. The
longer you are on the database, the higher you will be on any matchup list. When
you are scheduled to meet a dog you will need to include all members of your
family including any dogs you have at the meeting. It is important that all family
members as well as any dogs get along with our foster dog. These meetings are
a way to see if the dog is a good fit for your family as well as for the dog. Once
you have met the dog, you can either adopt the dog during the meeting or take 24
hours to make your decision. You will need to contact the foster home with
your decision, otherwise the foster home will contact the next family 24 hours
after you meeting the dog.
The ADOPTION PROCESS will require you to bring a collar, leash and id tag (for
the collar) so you can take your new dog home. An adoption agreement will be
completed and you will receive all the medical and vaccination information. The
adoption fee can be paid by cash or check.
