Adopting A Friend

Thank you for interest in One More Chance Rescue adoption program.  Detach and retain the front sheet for your information.

Anyone interested in adopting a dog from One More Chance must fill out an adoption application and be approved by a panel of 4 One More Chance personnel and meet the following requirements:

1. Must be 18 years of age or older to adopt.
2. Must have a fenced in yard.
3. Must meet expectations of a kind caring, and compassionate pet owner upon one on one personal interview with One More Chance director.
4. Must call back within 72 hours to confirm sincerity of adoption. This allows time to discuss all aspects of the possible new pet with the entire family.
5. Newly qualified adopters are required to come visit the dog they are interested in at our facility with the entire family before releasing the pet.
6. A phone check is made to qualified applicant's veterinarian to confirm the general care of their past or present pets.
7. The only reason an on-site adoption is allowed is if a puppy under 4 months is being adopted. This helps keep stress of a kennel environment out of the picture.
8. There is a complete comeback policy if the dog or puppy does not work out.

If you should decide to adopt one of our loving dogs, both you and the dog will benefit. The dog will become part of a loving home and you will be getting an unbelievably devoted companion.

Every attempt is made to have the dog spayed or neutered prior to placement. All have been vaccinated and are on heartworm prevention. The adoption donation is $175.00 if the dog has not been spayed or neutered and $150.00 if the dog has been spayed or neutered. Most of our dogs incur expenses greater than the adoption fee. If you wish to contribute more please feel free to do so. Your contribution will ensure that our program can continue its work.

If a dog is not spayed or neutered prior to placement due to age, heath, etc., the adopter must have procedure completed within 30 days of adoption. It is required that the new owner submit proof of spay and/ or neuter to a representative of One More Chance.

You may fill out an application form online. After you submit the form, you will be redirected to this page. If you feel more comfortable mailing in an application, you may download a hard copy of the application, print it, fill it out, and mail it to the following address:
