The puppies displayed on our website are raised through the Rescue Ranch Puppy Program. Some puppies also spend time in foster homes.
A healthy, happy puppy is also a well-socialized and confident puppy. We give our puppies a good start by socializing them with adults and other dogs, and (when possible) introducing them to a foster home setting. Depending on the foster home, puppies might also have been socialized with children, cats and/or other small animals.
Before going home, all of our puppies have received:
- First and second parvo/distemper vaccinations
- Bordatella vaccination (after 12 weeks of age)
- Deworming
- A puppy wellness exam with a licensed veterinarian
- Microchipping
If adopted before 12 to 16 weeks of age, we'll make arrangements for each pup to receive additional booster vaccines.
Our adoption fee also includes:
- A rabies vaccine (after 4 months of age)
- Spay/neuter by our veterinarian (at the appropriate age)
Optionally, an adopter may schedule spay/neuter with a vet of their choice.
Adopters must:
- Spay/neuter their puppy at 6-8 months old (1+ year for giant breeds)
- Sign a Puppy Adoption Agreement
We will contact you to arrange an vet appointment for your puppy's spay/neuter.
Rescue Ranch makes a lifetime commitment to its puppies. All puppies must be returned to Rescue Ranch if their adoptive family is no longer willing or able to care for them.
