Augusta Dog Adoptions

Our Adoption Process

All dogs are spayed/neutered and vaccinated prior to adoption. Several have received additional medical care as well. The standard adoption donation is $175.00. However, the donation can easily be adjusted for seniors and dogs with special needs. It may also be slightly higher for young, purebred dogs. The adoption donation helps us provide care for the foster dogs in our program as well as other dogs in the community. Each dog will go to his/her new home for a two week trial period, within those two weeks, if the match does not work out, the adoptee will receive a full refund. After this two week period, ADA is not required to give a refund. We ask potential adopters to fill out a short application that can be found under the Adopt link (or just click here to go directly to the application). If a match is made, adopters are asked to sign a contract stating that they will provide all necessary care. If they are unable to do so the dog must be returned to ADA. All dogs are adopted out as family members. They are not to be kept exclusively outdoors. They must be allowed inside of the household.
