Naked Kisses Dog Rescue Adoption Application

Please be as thorough as possible when completing the application in order to ensure your application is processed in a timely manner. Our rescue dogs are not adopted on a first come, first serve basis, but to the family who will be the best match. Since all of our dogs are in foster homes, we set up meet and greets only once there is an approved application on file.

Adoption fees are used to recoup a portion of the veterinary expenses that our rescue incurs on incoming dogs. Please remember that your paid adoption fee to NaKiD Rescue may be tax deductible; consult with your tax preparer.

As of 2-6-2020, a new rescue policy requires a non-refundable $5 Application Fee. Completion of an application does not guarantee approval for any dog.

Before submitting your application for one of our rescue dogs, please understand that it is the responsibility of the approved adopter to arrange transportation. Arrangements must be approved by our rescue prior to any adoption being final. We do not have the resources to assist with transporting an adopted dog to you, so please plan to travel to the foster dog in order to pick it up and take it home. Some dogs may not qualify for airline travel and can only be transported by automobiles.

If you would like to review our Adoption Contract prior to completing an application, you may do so here.
