I am often asked how I set the
adoption fee for each rescue, and why adoption fees may vary per dog.
Having been involved in scottie rescue for several years and having
40+ dogs in rescue each year, I have set some basic guidelines for myself
and my volunteers.
When a dog comes to North Texas Scottie Rescue they are treated as a member of the family until their forever home is found. The dogs are taken to our veterinarian for a full exam, spay or neuter, dental cleaning, all vaccinations and shots that are required by Texas law, heartworm test, and any and all medical treatment to assure their health and well being. They are groomed, socialized and assessed for temperament and behavior issues. NTSR gives every dog that enters rescue the love and compassion they so desperately deserve. Many of the rescues are in sad shape and require special care, especially those that come from broken homes, shelters and puppy mills. Many times we pay a fee to remove the dog from a shelter. Shelter fees range from $25 to $175 and in most cases this fee does include some basic vet care, including spay or neuter and heartworm check. Additional vet care is then provided by NTSR and more often than not the medical bills for these dogs exceeds their adoption fee and the difference comes out of our pocket. North Texas Scottie Rescue operates on ADOPTION FEES and DONATIONS ONLY. Special thanks go out to our hardworking volunteers and devoted scottie lovers, it is because of your generosity, hard work and continued support that we can and do make a difference in scottie rescue. North Texas Scottie Rescue will do all that is possible to give every dog the opportunity to experience a life filled with unconditional love and happiness. Sincerely,
