Our Work

Adoptable Dogs

Discover your future furry companion at Pets Return Home! Our dogs/puppies receive 12 weeks of behavior therapy, medical treatment, vaccinations, and more. DNA results are included for puppies, optional for adults.

Our Commitment

Pets Return Home is a NO-KILL shelter dedicated to saving unadoptable, neglected, and abused dogs. Our volunteer-staffed facility provides shelter, rehabilitation, adoption, and sanctuary. Every adoption includes a thorough behavior and medical history, ensuring a perfect match between our dogs and their new families.

Adoption Process

Begin your journey by completing our adoption application. We believe in pairing the right dog with the right family, ensuring a loving and lasting bond.

See our FAQs to learn more about adopting.

Sanctuary and Rehabilitation Dogs

Pets Return Home makes every effort to rehabilitate and find the best home for the special needs dogs in our care. Sadly, some of the dogs here have so much emotional or physical trauma or suffer from chronic illnesses that rehabilitation may not be enough. This limits their potential for adoption and leaving the ranch. We provide them with a safe life-long home free of suffering and uncertainty.

We have limited space and we depend upon the generosity of our supporters and public charity to feed, house, continue treatment and provide the necessary care for these dogs.

Adoptable Companions

Many of the dogs that come to our ranch are victims of neglect, abuse, abandonment or human ignorance. These homeless victims are on their last chance for life when they arrive at Pets Return Home. With the help of volunteers, professional behaviorists and trainers we transform them into loving family companions using professional behavior rehabilitation, exercise, socializing and love.

A BIG ADVANTAGE to finding your companion at Pets Return Home is that we are intimately familiar with each dog’s behavior and needs because we work with them closely for weeks, months, and even years. This allows us to help each adoptive family select the best dog for them. We also provide post-adoption counseling and training to ensure success

Rehabilitation Program Dogs (In-Rehab)

Our In-program dogs receive dog-specific professional behavior or medical rehabilitation. We are meeting our goal by accepting over 1000 dogs into our program and finding homes for over 980 (2023). We typically have 8 to 12 dogs in our programs at a time.

Adopted Dogs

Our adopted dogs' lives have been saved by Pets Return Home. The families who adopt our dogs provide the love and care many of them never had. We have a less than 2% return rate for our dogs. We are committed to matching every dog with the best family.
