Adoption Inclusions:

Along with daily care costs, the adoption fees help It Takes A Village cover vaccination and medical prep costs for the dogs. At adoption, ITAVR dogs will be current on their vaccines and will have the following:

  • Rabies (1 yr. or 3 yr.) if age appropriate
  • Distemper/Parvo (DHLPP or DHLPP-C)
  • Bordetella-if age appropiate
  • Heartworm test-dogs over 6 months
  • Preventions while in rescue care
  • Altered - Dogs over 6 months-Females Spayed or Males Neutered
    Dogs under 6 months-rescue will set the appointment and cover the cost of spay or neuter at one of their rescue friendly vets. This may require you to travel to one of our vets. If an out of state adoption is approved, we will require a neuter/spay deposit refundable after completion BY 6 MONTHS of age. Please discuss this with us to learn more. Spaying or neutering is required to finalize the adoption and any dog that misses it’s scheduled appointment will immediately be returned to the rescue
