Adoption Application

*** State of Florida solicitation file # CH-10677. Each contribution that is received by SHRF, Inc.
strictly goes towards care for and placement of our rescue dogs. ***

PLEASE NOTE: SHRF Inc. is an 'all volunteer' organization. Due to varying factors, operational areas of our organization change frequently, dependent on where we have active volunteers at the time an application is submitted. If you are currently outside of an area where we have an active volunteer to aid you with volunteering, adopting or fostering, one of our application coordinators will discuss this with you after receiving your application . Thank you for your patience.

ALSO NOTE: Effective December 1, 2009, AFTER your Adoption Application is received and a Volunteer has spoken with you, you will be requested to pay a non refundable $25 application fee via PayPal before we can proceed any further with your application. This $25 will be applied towards the Adoption Donation when a successful adoption is completed.

WARNING - The Furball you are about to consider adopting has more ENERGY than the atomic bomb and has fur that is HIGHLY volatile and could explode all over your house in minutes. *PLEASE read our education site before filling out an application.

Siberian Husky Rescue of Florida, Inc. is staffed by a team of dedicated volunteers whose primary mission is finding "forever" homes for our wonderful, furry friends. In order to do that, we must reserve the right to evaluate the homes and circumstances of each potential adopter versus the needs and characteristics of the dogs who are awaiting adoption. Ultimately, placements are made after carefully weighing all of the information pertaining to both the dog and the applicant, and often involve the efforts of more than one volunteer and a consensus of opinion. We feel that this process has contributed greatly to our outstanding track record of successful, permanent placements.
