ADOPTION FEES FOR ALL OF OUR DOGS = $400.
This covers their flight here and all their vetting. All of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, vaccinated and dewormed.
We have to charge adoption fees for our dogs. The reason why? We need to recover some costs. North East Paws Dog Rescue runs completely on donations, and like most volunteer organizations, we rarely have little more than lint in our pockets. Every animal we bring in needs medical care, whether it’s a basic checkup and vaccines, or major surgeries. We also are transporting our animals from places where there is severe dog overpopulation. We pay for flights, crates and drives if not provided by volunteers. If you’ve owned an animal before, you know it adds up fast. So adoption fees are one way that we can stay afloat and continue to save lives.
Another reason why we charge adoption fees is that pets are never really ‘free’, and we need to know that adopters can acknowledge that.
