Adoption
If you would like to adopt or enquire about a beagle from BRV, you must complete our online application Click below to fill in the form. The form is specific to beagles, however, we often have other breeds for adoption, if this is the case, please imagine the word ‘beagle’ is replaced with the breed of dog you are applying for on the form, as most questions are still applicable.
How does it all work?
Email & Phone Interview:
Once we receive your application, a BRV representative will assess and reply to your application via email, a phone interview and meeting will be arranged if all goes well.
House Check & Introductions:
We bring the beagle to your home to meet your family and pets and to check the suitability of the fencing.
Trial Period & Final Adoption:
If all goes well, we leave the beagle with you on a trial period. If the trial goes well and everyone is happy – in particular, the animals, then we process the paperwork and transfer ownership to you.
Of course, each case is individual, variations may need to be made, but the process must be followed and the heath and well being of the dogs should always be the number one priority. BRV should be contacted immediately if there is any issues, BRV remain the legal guardian of all animals until the adoption is finalised. BRV will answer any questions or concerns that the applicant may have and if at any time during the trial period the arrangement is not working, a mutually agreeable time and place will be arranged to return him/her back into foster care. Follow up contact is maintained with each family after the adoption is finalised, support and professional trainers are also available if needed. We encourage our families to stay in touch via email and social media networks, we LOVE hearing all the happy ever after stories, its why we do what we do!
Cost: Our beagles are not free. Our adoption fee is usually $600 which covers part of the costs involved with the care of your new family member. Costs such as; flea and heartworm treatment, worming, desexing, vaccination, microchipping, vet health checks, feeding and housing. However, it can sometimes be more or less than that, but it will never actually cover the full cost of each dog’s treatment. We run at a loss on every animal.
