(i.e fit of particular dog, needs of particular dog, socialization plan, etc.)
ASTDR is a volunteer & foster based rescue. Due to this we only consider those who are seriously interested in the pet they are applying for prior meeting them. Once approved and a pending adoption is placed on agreed on pet there is still a meet and greet with that pet and that pet only. ASTDR does not do multiple meet and greets. To confirm that you have read this and understand please type in the answer to this question: How did you hear about our organization?

Do you understand that once approved for a pet we require a $100 non-refundable deposit on that pet that comes out of the adoption fee?

Do you understand that the adoption fee covers all vetting appropriate to the age of the dog. The adoption fee funds all medical care, shelter, transport, and food. The fee is not solely for the dog you are applying to adopt but for all the animals in the rescue.
