WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT AS AN ADOPTER:
Supportive Process: Our team will guide you through every step of the adoption process, ensuring you find the perfect match for your family and lifestyle.
Thorough Assessment: We carefully assess each application to ensure the best fit between you and the animal.
Health and Safety: All our animals are spayed/neutered, vaccinated (age appropriate), and microchipped before adoption, so you can be confident that your new pet is healthy and ready for their new home.
If a dog has NOT yet been spayed/neutered, we will pay for the procedure at one of our partnering clinics OR offer you a voucher at your vet of choice. All pets MUST be spayed/neutered at 6 months of age

IS ADOPTION RIGHT FOR YOU!
Adopting a dog is incredibly rewarding, but it also requires time, patience, and commitment.
Before applying, consider:
Do you have time for an adjustment period?
Are you prepared for training and consistency?
Is your schedule a good fit for a dog’s daily needs?
Is everyone in your household on board?
Our goal isn’t perfection, it’s making sure you and your future dog are set up for success.
"I have had the BEST experience working with Sloan and Finn Animal Rescue. I adopted a pup - Watson- several months ago through their program. It was such a seamless process. I haven’t rescued a dog in years and was hesitant …on whether or not I was ready for the life change and adjustments necessary. Working with the team at Sloan and Finn eased my mind am made the process fun and easy. I felt so confident in their screening process and timeline. After completing the application and vetting process, they offer a meet & greet with the dog, then a 1 week trial to see if it’s a good fit. Everyone was so amazing to work with, and I instantly felt at ease.
Watson has been such a fun addition to our family! He is soooo large, soooo sweet, and has the goofiest yet chill nature. Exactly what our family was needing. We lost our precious dog unexpectedly and were still grieving, but I just fell in love with his story and knew he was meant for us and that he needed a home with a boy of his own! My son and I have had the best time getting to know his silly and chill personality.
Every rescue pup comes with potential challenges and adjustments, but we’ve had the best experience and felt supported and confident thanks to their personal approach. I’ve recommended Sloan and Finn to so many others already and will continue doing so!"
