Dalmatian Rescue of Puget Sound is a network of people who are passionate about Dalmatians. Our mission is to get them out of shelters where they run the risk of being euthanized. We work with shelters and rescue groups, not just in the Pacific Northwest, but around the country. We bring them into our homes, and give them the loving care they deserve. When we can’t take them into our homes, we look for people who can. We look for ways to get them needed medical care, even if it means we pay for it ourselves.

1. First, you fill out the adoption inquiry

2. We will contact you for a brief interview

3. We arrange for you to meet the Dalmatian. If you have dogs, they should come along, and the meeting should be in a neutral location, such as a dog park

4. If everyone feels the love, you fill out an adoption application

5. We check your references and arrange a home visit

6. We bring the dog to your home for a visit

7. You sign an adoption contract, promising to return the dog to Dalmatian Rescue of Puget Sound if for any reason you can not keep it, and pay an adoption fee of $150 for dogs under the age of 10, or $75 for dogs 10 or older.

8. You live happily ever after with your new best friend.
