K9 Orphans, Inc. is a non profit all breed canine rescue out of Rochester, NY that works with high kill shelters, homeless dogs, and owner surrender dogs to prevent euthanasia. We do not have a shelter or kennel, our dogs are placed into foster homes where they receive lots of love, training, and any medical care they need can be provided to them while they wait for their forever homes. We have foster homes across Western NY. We also strive to educate the public about the importance of Spay/Neutering, basic obedience, and care of their canines. Our goal is to make a lifetime match for you and our orphans. Please be patient with the process as we want the best for you and your fur baby!
The adoption process typically goes something like this: 1. Submit an application. 2. Schedule a meet ‘n’ greet with the dog(s) you are interested in. 3. We call vet, landlord (if applicable) and personal references. 4. Schedule a home visit, preferably with all household members and animals present. 5. Sign adoption contract, pay adoption fee, and transfer the dog.
