If I decide that this dog does not fit well with my family, I will contact Dirt Road Rescues and not attempt to rehome myself or take any other action to get rid of the dog. The adopter is to provide return transportation or get the pet to a different foster for Dirt Road Rescues.*
I understand that I am responsible for the care of this dog. I am responsible for any medical care that might be necessary once the dog/puppy is in my possession. I will provide annual vaccinations and heartworm preventative. I understand that intestinal parasites can reoccur in puppies and it is important to have a fecal exam done each time I take my puppy/dog to the vet.*
I agree to provide the dog with a collar and name tag with my phone number in case he/she gets lost. Pets will be transported with a collar and ID. Microchipping might be available for an additional fee. Please ask Dirt Road Rescues if interested.*
I will not keep this dog on a chain or tied up in any fashion.*
I will not allow this dog to breed with another dog.*
I will not use this dog in any sort of dog fighting or as a bait dog/used to train fighting dogs.*
Dirt Road Rescues will not be held liable for any damages that this dog might cause including harm to a person or damages to property.*
I understand that dogs are at risk for Kennel Cough when traveling together. I understand that transport guidelines and my future pet's medical records are in strict compliance and that the dog/puppy I am adopting has had at least 2 rounds of vaccinations including one Bordatella Vaccine to prevent Kennel Cough. Dirt Road Rescues is not responsible for medical bills that occur once the puppy/dog has been picked up by the owner.*
I understand that transport fees are NON-REFUNDABLE*
I agree to ONLY use POSITIVE reinforcement to train this dog/puppy and will not at ANY TIME hit, strike, spank, kick, or use ANY physical means to discipline this dog/puppy. I will contact Dirt Road Rescues immediately with any behavioral issues regarding the dog/puppy, and agree to enlist professional assistance from a qualified dog trainer/handler if required to ensure this dog/puppy learns to live a balanced life. I understand that using my voice loudly and saying “NO” or using a spray bottle of water is an appropriate way to discipline, when IMMEDIATE correction is needed to train my dog/puppy. I understand that my dog/puppy will not understand any correction other than IMMEDIATE correction DURING inappropriate behavior training.*
I agree to watch stool of my new pet carefully the first week. A bit of “stress diarrhea” is not uncommon, due to the stress of transporting. Avoid table scraps and human food. Use only pet treats to reward good behavior! Give lots of praise and a treat when your new pet uses the pee pad or the appropriate outdoor location when house training!*
I agree to contact Dirt Road Rescues within 24 hours of picking the dog/puppy up from transport, to ensure that the dog/puppy is in the new owners care and is healthy and safe. Please call or text 501-269-8566.*
Transport will be with Pack Leaders transport (plrdogtransport.com) or H.E.A.R.T.S. LLC (heartsllc.com). Dirt Road Rescues will arrange for transport and make the reservation. I agree to pay the transport fee as directed by Dirt Road Rescues. An agreed upon location will be designated for pickup.
I would prefer to pickup at Harrisburg, PA/ Port Jervis, NY/ Southington,CT/ East Hartford,CT*
Please feel free to ask for any references. Our board has been involved in Dog Rescue collectively, for many years, and we work very hard to maintain an excellent reputation.
