First of all, congratulations! When you adopt from Big Bones you are saving not one, but three lives! You’re opening a space in the shelter or foster home here in Colorado so we can open a space in boarding out of state, which also allows a space in a shelter. That’s the most amazing part of rescue that many people don’t know or see, so thank you! When you adopt, you will be given “approval” to fill out a contract and make a payment on our adoption portal. Please take a minute to read through the contract. There is information in there you might have questions about later, and you can reference your contract later in your portal if you need to! Speaking of, your dogs’ medical records will also be in your portal within a few days of adoption once we complete the adoption on our end. Access to your portal never expires, so you should be able to find them online at any time! We accept payment via debit/credit through our portal and we also can accept paypal, venmo, cash or check if the portal isn’t an option for you. When you are adopting ask as many questions as you need and feel free to text the person you adopted from if you have questions after adoption. It is a lot of information and emotion when you’re adopting, so reach out if you forget something!
