Dog Adoption Form

Our main concern at REHOMING CORK PETS is that animals should go to permanent homes where they will be happy and well cared for, for the rest of their lives. All the animals are here because their owners couldn’t, or more often wouldn’t, care for them. We hope to match each animal to a suitable owner and our first duty is to the animal. We require prospective owners to answer the following questions and to give as much information as possible.

PLEASE NOTE: If you live in a council or rented property, written permission from the council or owner may be required. Please be aware of a €250 adoption donation (the sum partially covers the expense for dogs to be neutered, vaccinated, microchip inc transfer and treatment for external and internal parasites). This fee is to be paid on the day.

As a small rescue with a high volume of emails, we are unable to provide feedback and updates on every application we receive. We will be in touch with suitable adopters to arrange a home-check, but we will be unable to reply to every single form that's returned. Please keep an eye on our Facebook page for updates.
