HOW TO ADOPT - page 2
Requirements for adopting:
•  We do require fenced yards in most cases. (It may be possible for an adult or senior dog to work out fine in a townhouse or condo environment, that have small enclosures/patio's).   We will occasionally adopt to apartments dwellers but only on a case by case basis. Puppies will not go to homes where they will be left alone for many hours. Most of our dogs have lived in small cages all their lives and we would prefer for other methods other than crating be arranged for when the dog is home alone.

•  All NMDR dogs will be primarily inside dogs - no dogs will live outside.

•  No NMDR dog will be kept on a chain.

•  All NMDR dogs will be provided with adequate fresh food and water, clean, dry shelter when outside, and daily exercise.

•  All NMDR dogs will be provided with a safe collar with ID tags to be worn at all times.

•  All adoptive families will obey all applicable laws governing control and custody of animals.

•  All adoptive families will provide all medical care and treatment needed by the dog including but not limited to: yearly medical checkups and vaccines, and preventative heartworm medication.

•  All NMDR dogs will be adopted only as a personal companion and not as a gift, working animal or guard dog.

• All NMDR dogs will be returned to NMDR should it be necessary to find another home for the dog.  NO dog will be given away for any reason.

•  NMDR assumes no responsibility nor shall they be held liable for any damages caused by the adopted animal to property, person or other pets.  If any medical problems occur after adoption, NMDR is not liable for any medical bills.

•  If you have other pets, they must be spayed/neutered if you adopt from us.  Your other pets must be up to date on all vet care (shots and preventatives).

•  If you are unsure as to whether you can commit to a dog for the rest of its life (regardless of whether you move, change jobs, or get divorced) then please rethink your decision to adopt a dog.  Adoption is for the rest of the dog’s life and our rescued dogs have already had enough turmoil in their lives.
