How much does a rescue cost?

No two rescues incur the same costs. A litter of puppies is going to cost more than a single, adult dog, all things being equal. Costs also depend on how much / what type of medical and / or behavior treatment they may need, food we supply to the fosters, or any additional complications that often arise.

Below are some general costs associated with a standard rescue:

1 Puppy

$400 - $800+

  • Vaccines ($50 – 150)
  • Deworming ($40)
  • Bravecto Flea & Tick ($20)
  • Spay / Neuter – ($120 – $300)
  • Foster / Boarding Expenses
  • Fecal & Parvo Test ($75)
  • Transport (per puppy sharing crate – $25. single puppy in single crate – $185)
  • Behavioral Training or Boarding
  • Surgical / Boarding Medical / Medications / Etc.
1 Adult

$675 - $1,000+

  • Vaccines / Preventatives / De-Worming ($150 – $200)
