Hi  - Thank you for your interest!
 

Please fill out the application below. All dogs/cats listed are available and will be marked adopted the instant they are adopted. We cannot respond to every inquiry as we receive HUNDREDS a day, so if you are truly interested in adopting it is best to get an application in right away. We review applications on a first-come/first basis. If you are being considered we will notify you via email. Otherwise, if you do not hear from us, we will put you on the waitlist for that pup/cat and email you if it becomes available again. We are volunteers who donate our time-saving animals but we have jobs, spouses, children, and our own pets to take care of so please be understanding that we cannot reply to everyone.

We are a GA based rescue that saves dogs and cats from high kill shelters down south and transports them to loving homes in the northeast (once adopted). All of our dogs/cats are cared for in foster homes in Georgia. We can put you in touch with the foster mom who can provide more pictures, and sometimes a video, so you can feel like you've met the dog and know their temperament. You will not be able to meet your dog/cat prior to adoption.

We transport adopted pets every other week and the details are on our website, www.SOSrescueGA.org

All our dogs are fully vetted and come with at least 2 sets of parvo/distemper vaccinations (puppies) or 1 set (adults), plus bordetella and a rabies vaccine if age-appropriate, heartworm and flea preventative started, spay/neuter, and microchipped. They will come with a full set of vet records and have passed an examination for their interstate health certificate by our vet before transport.

Puppy adoption fee is $450, adult dogs $375. 
All payments are made online via Credit Card or PayPal.

Please fill out the application below (copy and paste into your reply) or it is also found on our website www.SOSrescueGA.org

Thank you
SOS Rescue
