Adoption Application Part of the Adoption process includes a "Home Visit" by one of the AZBHR volunteers. This home visit is not to check for housekeeping, but is meant to ensure that your home is compatible with a Basset Hound's lifestyle. We will check for indoor living and sleeping arrangements, fencing, toilet and feeding arrangements, etc. The home visit is mandatory for all potential homes for our Basset Hounds. Please note that homes with an unfenced swimming pool must NOT allow free access (have a doggie door) to the yard where the pool is located. AZBHR will NOT place a dog in your home unless provisions are made that the access to outside through the doggie door is fenced so there is no access to the pool. A minimum donation of $100-$200, depending on the age of the dog, is required, payable
in full at time of
adoption. A full Adoption Fee schedule can be found under the Adopt
link at the top of the page. All dogs are spayed/neutered and vaccinated prior to adoption. You will be contacted regarding your application after AZBHR has had a chance to review it. Applications are reviewed in the order they are received. Please be patient as sometimes the process can take longer than usual depending on other rescue activities. If you have any questions, please call AZBHR at (602)225-7800. |
