Midwest Wheaten Rescue

MWR Adoption Process Our adoption process starts with the Adoption Application. We screen each application, and if there is a possible fit with one of the dogs who are looking for a home, we will then complete a phone interview. From there, we complete a veterinarian reference check to ensure that current or previous dogs in the household were regularly seen by a vet. The final step is a home visit, where we spend roughly an hour with the adopting family in their home. Whenever possible, we will bring the dog along so everyone gets to know one another. If it's a good match for all, the adoption is approved. We lastly require families to sign the Adoption Contract, and to submit the adoption fee ($400) which makes the adoption official. See our adoptable dogs here. ​ Please kindly remember that MWR is completely volunteer based. Each of its volunteers has a full time job and donate his or her time to help. Because of this, there may be delay in response times when you send a question or submit an application. We appreciate your understanding on this front. Adoption fee $400. This fee allows us to provide all foster dogs with vetting, food, and other care needs. The adoption fee also helps offset transportation expenses since many dogs we rescue come from other parts of the country. This fee does not actually cover the rescue's costs and MWR does not profit by way of its adoption fee.
