*OREGON BOSTON TERRIER RESCUE RESERVES THE RIGHT TO REFUSE
               ANY APPLICATION FOR ANY REASON* 
The answers you give on this application will help us find the best possible match between you 
and the dogs available for adoption.  Remember we are searching for the perfect home for each 
individual dog.  You may have a perfect home for one dog, but not another.  
This is not an over night process, we are volunteers and don’t always have available dogs, so 
please expect some waiting time to be involved. Please answer all questions as completely as 
possible. If any information is omitted, the application will be discarded.  
We reserve the right to inspect the prospective home environment both before and after adoption 
without any advanced notice.  In addition, if we discover that any information on this form was 
knowingly falsified, we reserve the right to take the dog back into our possession. 
PLEASE NOTE: If your application is approved, we will require a donation, at time of adoption, 
of up to $250 to defray the ever-increasing costs of veterinary care for our rescued dogs.  
In addition, at time of adoption, you will be required to sign a contract committing to the 
care of the dog.
