Adoption Process

Adoption Process

American Morkshire Rescue Association (AMRA) is pleased that you have decided to Adopt a dog in rescue. Our organization is dedicated to making sure that each dog placement will be in a "Forever Home." Each rescued canine will be examined by one of our professional AMRA vets. Once cleared by our approved vet, each dog is spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and micro-chipped then placed with a loving AMRA foster family until their future family is well matched to ensure its permanent family will be happy together.
We have to be thorough in our efforts to ensure that each dog placed is the right decision for both of you. There are many things to consider before adopting a dog, so PLEASE read all the information below to be considered as an adoptive parent, as you must meet and abide by the following:
  • If this is your first opportunity to helping a rescue dog, no doubt you are curious about the AMRA adoption process. First, please donate $5.00 to process your adoption application - you may DONATE on our home page, then submit an online application here.
  • Be at least 21 years or older.
  • Have identification showing you current and present address.
  • An adoption fee is required for the adoption of a dog. The adoption fee is listed on each dog's profile.
  • All adoption fee(s) are payable by PayPal, Money Order and Cash.
  • Be able and willing to spend time and money necessary to provide for the training, medical treatment, proper care and love of the pet.
  • What these dogs need MOST is time, love, patience and companionship!
  • Understand that ALL AMRA dogs are looking for permanent forever homes.
  • NO young dogs will be adopted by families with children under the age of 5 years.
  • Understand that NO dog is to be chained, tethered or confined. Dogs are pets and part of your family.
  • If at any time you can no longer care for your pet, you agree to contact AMRA regarding its future.
Once your application is submitted, a vet reference will be checked and as long as that is satisfactory, and when we have a rescue that is a well-suited match, then a phone interview and/or home visit will be scheduled and the adoption process will begin. AMRA has the right to approve or deny any application and confiscate any dog or puppy should you in any way fail to abide by these rules, the rules of the contract, or are deemed an unfit pet parent or harm the reputation of AMRA.

*Please note that we have no shelter where rescues can be viewed. ALL of our dogs are placed in individual homes being fostered until they find their forever home. The first step in the adoption process is to DONATE $5.00 and submit an online application. *AMRA has NO paid staff, we are ALL volunteers and we do our best to communicate promptly.
