Ordinary Miracles Canine Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit rescue group. We rescue, rehabilitate and rehome abused, unwanted and abandoned small dogs from the streets and kill shelters in and around San Antonio, Texas. We are a private, foster home-based rescue and do not have a public shelter. All our dogs are examined, vaccinated, spayed or neutered, microchipped and receive any and all necessary medical treatment before they are placed into carefully screened adoptive homes. We hope to raise awareness of the plight of companion canines in San Antonio and educate the public on responsible pet ownership one foster and adopter at a time.
Step 1 - The first step is the application which we ask you to complete and answer each question, providing three personal references, and a vet reference. Then email the application back to us. One of our volunteers will then call your references. Step 2 - The second step is a telephone interview which takes about 15 to 20 minutes. Step 3 - The third step is setting up a home visit with you. This is when we get to meet you and see where the puppy or dog will be living. We also want to be sure your yard is secure. Once the above are complete then you will meet the dog you are interested in or several dogs to find the right fit for you and your family. The process usually takes 3-4 days but can take a bit longer depending on the time it takes to reach your references. You can definitely get pre-approved if you're not quite ready to bring a dog into the family. Once you decide on a dog we collect the adoption fee and complete the necessary contracts. There is always a trial period to make sure everything is going to work out. We love to stay in contact for the life of our adopted dogs and will do occasional follow ups to be sure your new relationship is a joyful one. Your adopted dog will be spayed or neutered, up to date on their vaccinations, on heartworm preventative, dewormed and microchipped. Our adoption fee varies based on age and breed. Special contracts are available for puppies under the age of 5 months and heartworm positive dogs.
