How to Adopt from The Sanctuary

Thank you for choosing to adopt your new family member from The Sanctuary at Haafsville. We'd be delighted to help you make the right match and adopt an animal.  We will make every effort to ensure that the adoption experience will be positive for you, your household members and your new pet.

 

We are open every Saturday from 10:00am - 2:00pm ET at the Dog Adoption Center (901 Nestle Way, Breiningsville, PA 18031)

 

DOG Open Hours – Saturdays 10am – 2pm

**Please keep your dogs at home! Do not leave them in the car. 
**Dog adoptions will not take place during this timeframe. Applications will only be taken on our available dogs. Therefore, same day dog adoptions do not occur during our Open Hours. 
**It is not first come, first served, so please do not feel like you need to be there right at our opening at 10 am - that tends to be our busiest time.
**Please do your best to have ALL (human) members of the household present to meet our dogs. We do not finalize adoptions until everyone in the household has met the dog and needing to meet additional family members can delay the process.

 

This is a great opportunity to meet our resident animals and the Sanctuary Volunteers and get to know more about our animals and Us!  

 

Adoption payment is required before taking an animal home. The adoption fees range depending on the medical needs and the age of the dog. We accept Cash, Check, or Credit Card for adoption fees. If you want to know the adoption fee for a specific dog, please email our Dog Adoption Team

Interested in fostering?

A foster home is simply a temporary safe refuge for rescued dogs in order to prepare them for a new home. We provide all medicine, and veterinary care for the foster animal, food and supplies if needed, and you just supply your time, energy, home and most of all LOVE!

 

Please only submit the Foster application if you're interested in fostering only. If you are interested in adopting or fostering with the intent to adopt, please submit an Adoption application. 

 

If you are interested in fostering the following criteria must be met:

  • The primary caregiver of the foster animal must be an adult
  • If you rent we require written approval of your landlord and contact information
  • Since we have open adoptions every Saturday, it is helpful to have foster homes that are local so the animals can be brought there for our adoption events
  • It is also required that your own animals are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered.

Adoption Spotlight

We’re excited to show you who has been making great progress. Cindy came to the Sanctuary at Haafsville as a stray. For many weeks, she’s been scared and hunkered down in cat huts - rarely seeing the light of day. She had company as other cats would snuggle with her. With the help of caring volunteers, Cindy is more relaxed and brave. Just look at her posture and facial expression now. She shows her more confident self when it is quiet. In fact, she recently began jumping into the lap of her favorite volunteer for some attention. Cindy is staying out in the open and accepting pets, compliments and encouragement from volunteers. On adoption days, she will retreat to her safe space to avoid the activity and commotion. Cindy is still a work in progress. Her adopter must be acutely aware that she is starting to trust people and will need a great deal of patience, reassurance, understanding and love. Cindy deserves to continue her progress and journey in a quiet, safe and loving home.

 

Cindy is 3 years old, healthy, spayed, vaccinated, negative for FeLV/FIV, litter trained and microchipped.
