Adoption Application

NOTE: Please be aware that adoption donations are, without exception, NONREFUNDABLE.

Some mobile devices do not work well with online applications and can create delays in processing your application. For best results, a laptop or desktop computer is recommended.

Applications that are not completely filled out will be discarded without notice. If a question does not apply to you, please fill in the blank with “N/A”.

Big Cypress German Shepherd Rescue appreciates your interest in adopting one of our rescued dogs. German Shepherd Dogs are a strong working breed in need of experienced and active families. We offer discounted training in conjunction with Shelzsmide K9 of Naples, and recommend both formal and informal training with your German Shepherd for the life of the dog.

We will notify you and move forward with the adoption process should we have a dog available for you. Big Cypress German Shepherd Rescue reserves the right to deny applications without explanation at our discretion. Big Cypress German Shepherd Rescue relies on your donation to care for all the homeless dogs in our care. Adoption donations range from $250.00 to $500.00, depending on the age of the dog. There is a spay/neuter deposit of $250 for intact dogs which is refunded upon proof of procedure. This donation helps defray the costs of veterinary care given to your dog prior to adoption. This care includes some or all of the following (but not limited to): all vaccinations, heartworm testing and prevention medication, flea prevention, fecal testing and deworming if necessary and surgical procedures for spay/neuter. Your adoption donation also helps feed, house and provide veterinary care for the dogs still waiting to be adopted, and is NON-REFUNDABLE.

You are not buying a dog, you are making a donation. Thank you for understanding.
