what are the requirements?

One of the prerequisites to adopting a Pembroke Welsh Corgi rescue is that a family must have a fenced yard. This condition is waived if the family lives in an apartment setting where leash walking is mandatory.

All potential adoptive families must also agree to allow a member of the rescue committee to do a home inspection prior to the adoption.

When a dog is adopted from us, the new family must sign a corgi adoption contract that states the dog will be a house pet, never off leash in an unfenced area, and that it will be returned to as at any time in its life -- for whatever reason -- if it can no longer stay in the new home.

adoption fee

Our adoption fee is $200-$250, depending on the amount of vet care the corgi receives and length of time the corgi is in our program.

how long is the waiting list?

We do not adopt dogs out on a "first come, first served" basis, rather we try to make the best match of dog to family. After an application interview is completed, the adoptive family is placed on a waiting list of others looking to adopt. It is suggested that the prospective family checks back with us after 4-6 weeks if they have not heard from us about a dog.
