Welcome Home Sanctuary
Our Mission
Welcome Home Sanctuary is a 100% volunteer-based, grassroots nonprofit dedicated to finding the perfect dog for you. Our mission goes beyond adoption—we provide ongoing support to ensure a smooth transition for both you and your new best friend, from the moment you bring them home to their full integration into your family and beyond.
We rescue dogs from municipal shelters where they have little time left and accept owner surrenders, prioritizing those most in need. Instead of placing them in another stressful shelter environment, we immediately place them in loving foster homes. This gives them the time to decompress and allows us to understand their personalities, helping us match them with the right family.
With enough funding, we envision creating a sanctuary where rescued dogs can roam freely and heal while waiting for their forever homes. Until then, we remain committed to saving lives, one dog at a time.
Adoption Policy
Thank you for expressing your interest in adopting a rescue dog. Please fill out an adoption application on our website.
https://www.welcomehomesanctuary.org/adoption-application
We meticulously look over applications & place dogs based on a variety of criteria & fit, therefore filling out this application does not guarantee that the dog you choose will be available to you. The dog may be pending adoption or just not the right match. If our team believes you are a good fit, we will be in touch. There are no right or wrong answers. It's more about that perfect match to ensure a successful adoption for both you & the dog. Thanks, we look forward to hearing from you!
Our adoption fee is tax deductible, non-refundable contribution that assists in the proper care and re-homing dogs each year.
