Adoption Fees
The adoption fee assists our sending organization with the veterinary care required prior to transport and the cost to transport across states. $150 per dog is given to the sending organization to help defray medical costs and depending on where the dog is coming from, it is $125-175 per dog to move them. The adoption fee also helps offset the expense of dogs entering our care who need additional care for infections, orthopedic issues, tumors, heartworm treatment post adoption or any other illness/injury.
Every dog adopted from HHDR has had a minimum:
All dogs are spayed or neutered prior to adoption.
Rabies, Distemper/Parvo and Bordatella vaccinations given when age appropriate.
Heartworm test/treatment, if positive.
Monthly preventatives for heartworm, fleas and ticks.
