At Refurbished Pets of Southern Michigan we partner with regional animal shelters and Lakeland Correctional Facility in Coldwater, Michigan to help dogs reach their maximum potential and find loving forever families. Our carefully screened dogs are fully vaccinated and spayed or neutered before entering their 10 week program with specially trained inmates who are fully responsible for their daily training and care. When the dogs graduate training they are ready to receive a canine good citizen certificate (CGC) and are available for adoption into an approved home. RPSM does not have a facility as we utilize foster homes to care for most of the dogs that enter our program. Once you are approved to adopt, you may be able to meet with a dog that is in a foster home before they enter training. If approved to adopt a dog while they are in training, you will receive their weekly reports until adoption day.
1. Fill out the online Adoption Application. 2. RPSM will contact your references, including your veterinarian(s). Please inform them that an RPSM volunteer will be calling them. 3. RPSM will schedule a 30-60 minute home visit to meet you and your family. 4. After our internal review, RPSM will contact you to notify you if you are approved or denied. 5. If your adopted dog is still in the Prison Program, you will receive weekly reports regarding his/her progress via e-mail. In some cases you may have the opportunity to meet the dog prior to entering the Prison Program. 6. When your adopted dog is paroled you will get to meet your dog. If the meeting proceeds smoothly, you will be able to take your new family member home that day, after the adoption paperwork is complete.
