The Brittany Foundation is a public charity which rescues, rehabilitates, rehomes and provides safe shelter for homeless dogs. Our rescue efforts focus on dogs which no one else might adopt from "kill" shelters, such as geriatric, disabled, severe neglect dogs. We also rescue puppy mill victims, strays and dogs from foreclosure and hospice situations. In addition to being a rescue, we are also a sanctuary for those dogs who might never be adopted. We care for them for life.
If you're interested in adopting a dog from us, we'll ask you to fill out an adoption application. This gives us a chance to find out a little bit about you and to make sure the dog you are interested in will be a good match for your family and lifestyle.
If it looks like a good match, we will set up a time to come to your house for a home inspection. This allows us to make sure your home will be a safe, secure place for the dog... and it gives you a chance to see how the dog will interact with other pets and members of your family. Because of this policy, adoptions are generally restricted to the Los Angeles area and, in some cases, to other parts of Southern Califonia only. (We do occasionally make exceptions for "the perfect match", but the home must still be within reasonable driving distance).
Our adoption fees range from $150 to $300 for non-puppy mill dogs and from $300 to $500 for puppy mill dogs. Our puppy mill dogs are costing us thousands of dollars because they were never treated medically, so we must charge more for them. This is a tax-deductible donation to our organization, and it goes towards the rescue, rehabilitation and care and long term stay of other dogs in the program. The fee is non-refundable. All of the dogs are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and given a veterinary check-up and grooming before they are placed in new homes.
Please Note: Our adoption application is very thorough and takes several minutes to complete. Please read the following Adoption Procedures before you fill it out.
