Adoption Process:
1. The first step is to copy and paste the application located on the next page into your email and email the filled out application to: hubbardshounds@gmail.com
When we get to your application in the processing phase, you will receive an email telling you the donation amount for the dog you are interested in. That way, if you want us to proceed, we will, if not, we haven't wasted valuable time. It may be up to 2 weeks before you hear from us.
2. Since we are not a shelter and our dogs are in different foster homes located in many different places, we do not arrange meetings with the dogs until your application has been approved.
3. We require that you fill the application out completely or it will not be considered. It is important to us to place our dogs with the right family depending on their personality and yours. If you have a dog, cat, or any other domestic animal you must give us the vet who treats the animal. Any application with an animal, but no vet listed with automatically be denied. We also must be given permission by you to your vet for them to talk to us. Please call your vet and let them know someone might be calling to avoid delays.
4. Our adoption donations depend on the dog. The younger the dog, the higher the donation for him/her. Donation fees range from $200 to $400 and are tax deductible. Seniors have a much lower adoption donation. All donations, 100% are used to care for the dogs. All administrative fees are paid by our very loyal volunteers. We are a non profit corporation and are in the process of getting our 501(c)(3) as a charity. We are totally dependent on donations, we get no government subsidies to help with vetting or any other costs. All dogs that are adopted from us that are old enough will be altered and up to date on shots. If a puppy is too young, they will be adopted on a strict spay/neuter contract, but will have all shots they are old enough to have. Please see next column for a typical vet bill for each animal.
5. Many times we get a lot of applications for one dog so we don't always get to every application. We are all volunteers and do the best we can to get to all applications, but sometimes we find the perfect match before we can check them all.
6. We would appreciate it if you ONLY apply if you are serious about considering adopting from us. The dogs we have are generally NOT housebroken if they are from a puppy mill. These dogs will take a committment from their adopter and will return your love tenfold once they learn to trust you.
WE HAVE RECEIVED OUR 501(C)(3) ELECTION!!!
A BIG THANK YOU to our Rescue Angels Carolyn and Tom for donating enough money for us to apply for our 501(c)(3)!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL YOU DO CAROLYN AND TOM!
NORMAL VET BILL:
Exam..............................$39.00
Pre-Anesthetic Panel (to be sure the dog can handle anesthesia).......$48.00
Catration (small male)...........$130.00
Ovariohysterectomy (small female)...........................$150.00
Microchip implant ................$41.00
Heartworm test..................$27.00
Rabies shot ......................$12.00
DHLPP shot ......................$12.00
Bordetella shot ...................$15.00
These are the "normal" charges for every dog. Then if the dog needs a teeth cleaning, teeth pulled, has any kind of medical problem at all, the cost is more. Most puppy mill dogs do need a teeth cleaning at the very least, most have teeth pulled. So, rescuing a dog is not "cheap", but the reward and the pride you will feel is "PRICELESS"

What We Do
We rescue dogs in danger, some that are abused, some that have been turned in by their owners and others that are in danger of being euthanized because they are strays or unwanted. We also take dogs that puppy mills give up because they can't produce or have gotten too old and are going to be killed. We do our best to rehome the dogs we take in by placing them in foster homes and working with them to rehabilitate so they can be adopted. For more information on puppy mills, go to the following website: www.puppymillrescue.com, it will shock you!
Foster Homes Needed
We are in need of foster homes in the Homer/Cortland and beyond areas. If you are interested in becoming a foster parent, please go to the FOSTERING page and submit an application. We will check all references and then schedule a home visit to come talk to you about fostering. Fostering is a commitment that needs to be taken seriously. We need foster homes to be able to continue taking and placing dogs. The more foster homes, the more dogs we can save and place.
Thanks again to all of you who are helping in any way, for wanting to help dogs learn how to be loved! Our volunteers are priceless and we wouldn't be so successful with out them. So a big thank you to our foster parents and their families: Anna, Elaine, Kim P, Stacie, Julia and John, Heather, Carolyn and Tom, Cindy, Corrie, and Justin, Jen and Bob, Pam, Linda S and Kim T, our transporter Peter, and the Florida crew Pam, Viv and Tom, and Linda J.
Kim and Sue want to thank everyone for their willingness to pitch in and help when needed!
Email Us Today!
Susan and Kimberly Hubbard are the directors of this dog rescue. You can contact us by email anytime and we will do our best to get back to you within 24 hours. Unfortunately due to the number of applicants, phone calls are not accepted and messages left will not be returned.
We look forward to hearing from you via email. If you are planning on adopting, fill the application out as soon as possible, most of our dogs do not stay in foster homes for long.
