The foster will arrange a time with you to visit your home and check for potential hazards and poisonous plants. 

Plants that are and are not poisonous to dogs

You will pay the adoption fee to the Rescue. It varies depending on the dog due to each dog having specific needs prior to adoption. The foster will be able to communicate the fee amount. 2nd Chances Rescue is a non-profit and fees pay medical bills, vaccines, food, pee pads, milk replacer, and of course, some toys. 

Due to the ever-increasing cost of spay and neuter, not all dogs may be spayed/neutered at adoption. If they are, fee will be higher to help cover the cost. If the dog is not spayed or neutered, it will be your responsibility to have it done and will receive a rebate from the rescue upon proof. Vaccines are included in the adoption fee.
