We believe rescue should begin with education and community involvement. We strive to place dogs in homes that will provide a safe, loving environment. We work with adopters throughout the adoption process to promote a positive, forever relationship. K94Keeps rescues dogs from open-access shelters in Chicago and the surrounding areas. We sometimes have owners who surrender their dogs directly to us as well. All dogs are provided housing, vetting, foster, and adoption services.
Start by filling out the application. Understand that the completion of the application does not guarantee the foster or adoption of a K9 4 KEEPS dog. Know that the applicants that seem to be the best fit for each particular dog will be contacted by a K9 4 KEEPS volunteer by phone or email to set up an initial meeting, Have all family members present (including any resident dogs or children) for the introduction of the dog. Set up a time for a home visit. If approved to adopt a K9 4 KEEPS dog, be prepared to: sign a legally binding adoption contract; pay an adoption fee of $300.00 on the date of adoption (this fee goes toward the rescue and care of current and future rescue dogs); take the dog home on the date of adoption; spend up to an hour with an adoption counselor to discuss the responsibility of owning a dog and making your relationship with your dog a lifetime commitment.
