ADOPTION Note to Out of State Adopters: We are more than happy to adopt rescue dogs to out-of-staters if we can get a home visit done. However, please know that you are expected to drive to the foster home to pick up your new family member. We cannot ship or arrange transportation! Please note that filling out an application DOES NOT guarantee you a specific dog. If you're interested in a particular dog that is on our website, we'll keep that in mind. However, we strive to match the perfect dog to the perfect family. Our foster parents have a very good "feel" for the dog's personality. We try to match that to the personality of the family. Again, your application DOES NOT put a hold on a specific dog. Once your application is approved the applicant/family is then matched up with a dog. This process could take a couple of days or several weeks depending on the location of the family, the requirements of the family and/or the available dogs. Tthe adoption fee is collected and an adoption day form is completed. The adoption application is a contract that outlines the requirements of the new family and the conditions for keeping the dog. We will tell you as much as we know about the health and personality of the dog before you take them home with you.   GRAPE • PO Box 124 • Springfield, PA 19064 • E-Mail: [email protected] © 2014 Golden Retriever Adoption Placement & Education | Philadelphia / Delaware Web Design & Hosting
