Daisy & pups
Application for adoption...
Please feel free to copy and paste these questions (or print them out and mail the completed application to us via US Mail) when applying to adopt one of our puppies. Additionally, please include 3 character references from people who have known you for at least 2 years, and a photo of you & your family (if applicable) as well as the surroundings where the puppy will live. The application fee is $50 and is in addition to the purchase price of your puppy.
Again, thank you for your interest in our dogs! It is our utmost concern that we screen our customers to ensure that our corgis go to the best homes possible. They deserve it. :-)
