Adopting

Adopting a dog brings joy and saves a life. At Teca Animals Refugio, dogs of all personalities are waiting for a loving home. Whether you want an energetic playmate or a calm companion, your perfect match is waiting for you. By adopting, you give a deserving dog a second chance at a forever family.

Once you’ve found a dog that captures your heart, you’ll need to fill out an adoption application. This application typically includes questions about your lifestyle, experience with pets, and your ability to provide a suitable home.

We also would be conducting an interview to make sure that you and the dog you would like to adopt are a good match.

Upon approval of your application, you will be required to pay an adoption fee. This fee covers the cost of vaccinations, spaying/neutering, and other medical treatments the dog may have received. It also covers complete vetting of the dog meaning, medical vetting and medical paperwork to accompany the dog, flight costs, customs paperwork and fees, customs inspection fees, and porter fees. You will also need to sign adoption paperwork, outlining your commitment to providing proper care and attention to the dog.

Our Adoption Fees
$800.00 For Small Dogs Up to 7kgs.
$650.00 For Other Dogs
$500.00 Senior Dogs
Fee Includes CBSA Fees And A Travel Bag For The Dog
