Rescue Dobermans Available for Adoption


We are open for you to come visit the dogs
from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. most Sundays.


This page was last updated on July 28, 2010.

If you are interested in adopting a Doberman from us please fill out our adoption application as the first step in the adoption process.  We will process your application and discuss it with you.  Almost every Sunday we hold an open house. After you have submitted an application we invite you to come and meet the dogs.  Please Note: In order to fund the substantial veterinary care we provide for our dogs we ask for a $225 donation for adult Dobermans with natural ears, $300 for adults with cropped ears, and $350 for purebred puppies. (Note: A Doberman is a puppy until it reaches one year in age). We accept cash or checks only.  No credit cards. The information printed on the check must match the driver's license name and address.

You should also check our shelter page and referral page for additional dogs looking for homes.  Note that the dogs on the shelter page have only a limited time before they are put to sleep so you must move quickly if you would like one of them.

All adoptions are on a first come, first served basis. If you are only interested in a particular dog, especially if you live a long way away, get here at 10:00 AM. The reason you want that particular dog may be precisely why someone else is going to want it too.

We only adopt to people who have completed an application and have been approved.  If we have not had time to review your application you should wait another week before you come to Open House. We do not have the staff to pull dogs out of their runs to show to unapproved applicants.

We only adopt to people who live within a three hour drive of DFW airport.
