Adopting families must be willing
to take the Sheltie into their home as a family member, provide proper
food, yearly vaccinations, monthly heartworm preventative, clean water,
daily exercise, adequate grooming and large amounts of love. Potential
new homes are thoroughly pre-screened. With most Shelties, we require
a fenced yard and must see children under the age of five interact
with the dog.

Fees
Our adoption fees are based on a sliding
scale dependent on the age of the dog and other factors. Seniors over
seven (7) years and dogs with Special Needs will have
a $200.00 fee. Puppies under the age of three (3) years will be $350.00
and all others are $275.00. If that seems confusing... well...
it probably is... It is simplified on the available page.
The individual dog's bio will list the adoption
fee for that particular pet.
Dissatisfied Adopter
If the adopter is
not satisfied with any aspect of the adoption, the dog may be returned
to Sheltie Rescue of Georgia, Inc., within two weeks of the adoption
date for a full refund of the adoption fee. At any point in
the life of the dog past the two weeks after adoption, if the adopter
is not able or willing to keep the dog, the dog must be returned to
Sheltie Rescue of Georgia, Inc. per our adoption contract.
