adoption Application Fee

---

** BHNW only adopts to families in WA, OR, ID, BC Canada **

As a non-profit organization fueled by the generosity of our donors and the dedication of our volunteers, we require a $20.00 application fee via the PayPal "Pay Now" button below. This fee directly supports vital veterinary care for our foster dogs.

Please note that the fee is non-refundable, even if your application does not progress through our thorough, multi-step review process right away. This includes the application itself, vet checks, landlord verification, interviews, home visits, and meet-and-greets.

Your application remains active for one year.

Due to the high volume of applications we receive, not every application will move forward. When a dog is ready for adoption, applications are reviewed by the foster parent and adoption coordinator to identify the best possible match for that dog’s specific needs. If your application appears to be a potential fit, a member of our team will contact you for next steps or additional information.

We deeply appreciate the understanding of families who support our mission and share our commitment to prioritizing the well-being of our rescue dogs. Together, we can continue our life-saving work!
