Applications:
Adoption Application
Foster Home Application

PLEASE NOTE: The same Application is used for the Adoption Application and the Foster Home Application

Please see instructions on the Before you start page prior to completing the application. Then download the application, complete and add a separate sheet with any information you wish to tell us. It helps us if you print neatly or type your application.

The application is available in three different file formats:

• PDF document (92 KB, 8 pages)
  NOTE: To view a PDF file, you will need the Acrobat Reader.
  
  
• Word document (96 KB, 8 pages)
  
  
• Web Page (HTML) (24 KB, approximately 9 pages)

Please Note: You must fill out ALL questions completely in order to have your application processed in a timely manner. We are volunteers and when we have to call you to complete your questionnaire, your application is delayed considerably in processing. This especially applies to the FENCING QUESTIONS! We require a fenced enclosure and need to know the details of your fenced area. Please read our page on Fence Requirements for specifics.

Fees and Agreements
Due to the effort required to process adoption applications for a Golden Bond Rescue dog, a $25.00 non-refundable fee is required with each application. If you are applying to ONLY foster, the application fee is waived. All other applications must be accompanied with the $25.00 application fee. When you have met the dog you wish to adopt, and all five steps of the adoption process have been completed and approved, the adoption fee is due. Our adoption fees are as follows:

• 0-3 years: $300.00
• Over 3 years and up to 9 years: $200.00
• Over 9 years: $100.00

The adoption fee is reduced for Seniors and Special Needs dogs. If you adopt from Golden Bond Rescue, we require that you sign an adoption agreement. The adoption agreement is in two parts. The first part is a liability waiver — we cannot guarantee anything. The second part is our "terms of adoption".

The required postage for mailing an application is $.60 cents.
