Are you considering adopting a new pet?

Adopting a pet is a big decision, and while it may be tempting to adopt after looking at those adorable faces, it's important to have a plan. With research and preparation, you'll be in a better position to determine whether you have the time, space and money to adopt. Check out our Adoption Resources page for lots of great articles on adopting a rescue!

The RDL-C application process includes a few steps, they are as follows:

Step 1: Carefully review the profile of the dog you are interested in adopting on the Adopt section of our website to determine if the dog is the right fit for you.

Step 2: After selecting the dog, you can fill out the application by clicking the button Apply for this <dog’s name>: OR

Step 3: You can still complete an application that is not attached to any specific dog; we will do our best to match you with a compatible dog based on your responses.

Step 4: Our adoption team will review your application. Please note that we will only respond to applications that are a good fit.

Step 5: If there is a possible good fit, we will schedule a video call to meet you and ask you some further questions. Our goal is to determine a suitable living environment for the specific dog you applied for.

Step 6: At this point, your adoption is confirmed and you will start to receive weekly updates on your dog from the fosters in Lebanon via Whatsapp.

Step 7: Your dog will be taken to the vet for a final heath check.

Step 8: We will then work to secure a flight buddy for your dog.

Step 9: Meet the RDL-C team at the airport in Montreal or Toronto to pick up your new pup!
