Adoption Process

We ask all potential "adoptive parents" to complete a questionnaire. It is very important to us, and we believe to you, to have the best possible match of dog to owner. It should only take a few minutes to complete the questionnaire and mail it back to MBTC. A $5 processing fee is required with all applications. Incomplete applications and those submitted without the processing fee will not be reviewed. If you wish to include a photograph of you and your family, you are welcome to do so. When we receive a Boston Terrier that is an appropriate match, we will contact you. Please keep in mind we have a lot of applications to go through. It is important you review our policies so you will know what to expect from us and what we will expect from you. Boston's come to us from many sources; veterinarians, humane societies, private surrenders, friends, family, or other rescue groups. We usually do not get puppies! Most of our rescues are older and may have some medical problems. We do not split dogs that have lived together in the same homes their entire lives. When we receive a rescue the dog is examined by a veterinarian. All shots are updated and the dog is evaluated to determine if additional veterinary care is needed. If the dog is healthy, and/or treatable, we then place the dog with a foster family and begin our search for a "forever home". Dogs are kept in foster care for approximately one month to evaluate health and temperament. The cost of adoption is $150-500 (depending on age and health) plus the cost of micro chipping and registration. At the time the dog is placed for adoption, the "parents" will need to sign a "contract for companion quality rescue dog". This contract states that the Boston Terrier being adopted is a pure bred, companion quality, rescue dog. The pedigree is not available, and the dog is not eligible with the American Kennel Club. Further details are available at the time of adoption.
