Adoption Process

Adopting a dog from Bodhi Dog Rescue & Shelter is a rewarding experience that brings joy to both you and the rescued dog. Our process is designed to ensure that our dogs find loving and responsible forever homes. Learn more about our adoption steps and how you can welcome a new furry friend into your life.

Initial Application and Screening

The first step in our adoption process involves completing an initial application form, which helps us get to know you and your lifestyle. This form includes questions about your home environment, family members, and any existing pets. Once submitted, our team will review your application and carry out a preliminary screening. This is crucial to make sure that our dogs are placed in homes where they will receive the love and care they deserve. If the application is successful, we will contact you to schedule a  visit.

Meet and Greet with the Dog

Once the initial screening is completed, we will arrange a meet and greet with the dog you are interested in adopting which will take place at our shelter in Phuket. During this meeting, you will have the opportunity to interact with the dog and see how they fit into your life. Our experienced staff and volunteers will be on hand to answer any questions you may have and provide guidance on how to best integrate the dog into your home. This step is important to ensure that there is a mutual connection between you and the dog.

Finalising the Adoption

After a successful meet and greet, the next step is to finalise the adoption. This involves signing an adoption agreement, which outlines your responsibilities as a new pet owner and our commitment to support you. We do not require an adoption fee. However, a donation is recommended which helps cover the cost of vet care, vaccinations, food, and other necessities for the dogs in our care. Once the paperwork is completed, you can bring your new furry friend home. Our team will provide ongoing support and follow-ups to ensure a smooth transition for both you and your new pet. Remember, adopting a dog is a lifelong commitment and we are here to assist you every step of the way.
