Hubbards Hounds Dog Rescue

Copy and paste the following form in to your email, fill it in, and email to:

hubbardshounds@gmail.com 

To adopt a dog from us the:

1. Fill out the application form below and send to us at the gmail address above, if it goes to yahoo, we will receive it, but it may get lost with the thousands of other emails I receive. Once we receive your application, if the dog does not have another pending adoption, we will reply back with an adoption donation amount.

2. If you want to continue with the adoption process you MUST reply back to us within 48 hours or we move on. Our donations range from $100-$300 depending on the age of the dog. The younger the dog, the higher the adoption donation except in the case of unneutered or unspayed puppies and then the donation is reduced because the adopter MUST have the dog altered by 6 months of age.

3. Please don't apply until you are ready to adopt. We can't hold a dog, we try to place dogs as soon as possible so we can save another. Usually our adoptions take only one to two weeks once an application is received as long as the dog is all ready to go. There are times when a dog is listed and not quite ready for some reason, but most often a dog that is listed is ready for adoption.

4. Please list a vet if you have an animal or have had an animal recently. Call that vet and give them permission to talk with us immediately so we don't have to contact you to have you do that. It slows up the application process and very few vets will give us information without your giving them permission to do so. If you don't list a vet and personal references, we will not process your application and it will automatically be denied.

5. If you are not prepared to travel to Homer, NY to pick your adoptive dog up, do not apply. We do not have transport available, we are a very small rescue with few volunteers. Please use www.mapquest.com to get an idea of the amount of time it will take from your address to Homer before applying to save us all time if you are not willing to make the trip.

6. Please remember we are all volunteers, we all have families and paying jobs. We do dog rescue because it is our passion and we all work very hard at it. We are not perfect although we try our very best to do all we can to place as many dogs as possible. Please keep that in mind and be patient. Thank you for considering a rescue dog! They all need a place to call home and it will turn out to be the best decision you have ever made!
