Cavalier Crazy Rescue was founded in 2010. It started with one Cavalier that needed a home, and has just grown from there! As of 2015 we are a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. Talk to your accountant about your donations. We are dedicated to helping Cavaliers in need in Utah. All of our dogs live in foster homes, we do not have a shelter. We have our dogs health checked for heart and knee problems, they are spayed or neutered and are up to date on shots, have microchips and dentals are given when needed before they go to their new homes. We will adopt to out of state adopters, but only if you are within driving distance of Utah. You must come to Utah to meet the dog you are interested in. We do not ship. If you are in state we require a home visit, if you are out of state we require photos of your yard, and may require a home visit if we have a volunteer in the area. We do not adopt to homes without a fenced yard! Adoptions to families in apartments depend on the dogs needs. We believe that adoptions are on a case by case basis and will work to find the right home for the dog. We will always take our dogs back no questions asked if things do not work out or your circumstances change. It is important for us that our adopters stay in touch and feel free to contact us with questions or concerns!
Once you have an approved adoption application and have submitted photos/videos of your yard we will match you up with a dog who you will meet and if you feel it’s a good fit, you sign a foster to adopt agreement and pay half of the adoption fee up front. Once the dog has had its vetting we finalize the adoption, the remainder of the fee is paid and we then transfer ownership of the dog, vet records and transfer the microchip to the adopter. If at any time in the foster to adopt period it is clear the dog is not a good fit, we will work with you to find a new foster to adopt home for the dog and refund the adoption fee. This is different from a spay/neuter contract in that we schedule the spay/neuter and the ownership of the dog isn’t transferred until after the surgery. We do this to ensure the dog gets spayed/neutered when it needs to be done. Foster to adopt homes must be in Utah, from Ogden to Provo, and must be willing to come to Murray or Tooele for surgeries. Exceptions may be made for outside that area but adopter must come to Murray or Tooele for vetting.
