At this time, we would like to inform you that due to the influx of applications over the past few months, our wait time for processing and approving an application is approximately 2-5 months depending on how specific you are about the dog you are looking for. We appreciate your patience in these difficult times. Are you comfortable with a potential wait of several months? Note: If you are NOT or if you are looking at other Rescues or Breeders for a dog, please STOP the application at this time.
*
YES
NO
Our adoption fees range from $300-$850. Please note, the fee structure is dependent on age so younger dogs will be in the higher price range. Are you able to accommodate that adoption fee at this time? Note: If NOT, please STOP the application at this time.

YES
NO
Due to the projected wait time and amount of applications currently being received, you are applying to adopt a bulldog in general. TABR will work with you on the specific match that fits your home. But very often when you apply, the dogs "available" on the website already have meetings set up with approved adopters. Do you understand that you are not applying for a specific dog?

Additional comments:
I understand that dogs placed by Tornado Alley Bulldog Rescue (TABR) have been acquired, fed and boarded; have received necessary medical care and vaccinations; and have been tested to be free of heartworms and contagious disease at the expense of TABR volunteers, who receive no financial reimbursement for expenses. I understand that I will be asked to give a donation to Tornado Alley Bulldog Rescue to help offset the spaying/neutering and veterinary care of current and/or future rescued Bulldogs. The specific adoption amount is determined based on the individual dog's age, health, and rehabilitation requirements. I have answered all the above questions truthfully to the best of my knowledge. I have read a copy of the Adoption Contract, understand it and agree to abide by its terms should a Bulldog be available for placement in my home. I understand that if, for any reason, I can no longer care for or keep the dog, I must return it directly to a Rescue member, and I will sign all necessary papers for the surrender of the dog. I hereby make application to Tornado Alley Bulldog Rescue to have my name added to an appropriate waiting list to be considered for giving a rescued Bulldog a permanent home. I understand that my application may not be acknowledged unless or until I am being considered to adopt a particular Bulldog and that it may be important for me to be available for an interview by phone or in-person on short notice. By clicking I agree you allow TABR and its members to contact you via phone, email or regular mail with information about Bulldogs. * By checking this box you agree to all the conditions that apply to this application.
