Thanks for your interest in a SPAR dog!  A representative will respond to your application within three days.  We will probably have additional questions for you, so our next step will be a phone call.  Our goal is to evaluate the applicant's interests in order to make the best match that, in turn, will help ensure successful long-term adoptions.

We'll set up a time for you and your family to meet the dog. It's important that all household members be in agreement about the adoption. Your current pets must also interact with the SPAR dog you are interested in at the meet and greet. (They must also be in agreement with the choice!)

We conduct home visits prior to any adoption.  These visits are done in person or via video calls, depending on the circumstances.

Our adoption fee is $275 which can be paid in cash or online using PayPal, Zelle, Venmo, Visa, Mastercard, Am Ex, or Discover.  The fee goes toward spaying/neutering, all vaccinations, a 4DX heartworm test, and heartworm/flea/tick prevention.  We do reserve the right to not adopt a SPAR rescue to any household for any reason.

By signing this application you are agreeing to provide continued basic care to this animal including any and all necessary vet care, yearly check-ups and vaccinations, as well as monthly heartworm/flea/tick medications.  Your signature also acknowledges that if for any reason, at any time, the pet is not a right fit for your household, you will contact SPAR at SPARpets@gmail.com and we will make immediate arrangements to come to pick up the dog, no questions asked.  This is our guarantee.

We look forward to getting to know you better and letting you know more about SPAR and the pet you are interested in!
