Adoption Questionnaire

Thanks for your interest in adopting a rescued GSP. This questionnaire is the first step in our adoption process.

Our service area is Northern California and priority is given to residents within our service area and adjacent areas. If you are interested in one of our older or hard-to-place dogs, we will consider out-of-area applicants in areas in the western United States; please apply if that's the case. If you reside in Southern California, our colleagues at CA GSP Rescue will be happy to assist you - Southern California residents USE THIS FORM. Not in California? Find rescues in your area on the Regional Rescue Group List through National GSP Rescue.

Because almost all of our dogs come to us with unknown histories, we don't adopt to families with children under 6 unless we have a dog that is known to be good with younger children, which will be specifically noted in the foster dog’s posting.
