Adoption Process
The adoption process includes submitting an application for adoption, followed by a review of the application through a phone conversation with the prospective adopter. After this, there will be a meeting with the dog to assess compatibility. A home check will be conducted to ensure a suitable environment for the pet. Once approved, an adoption contract will be signed, and the adoption fee will be paid. The process also includes three training sessions with the dog as part of the adoption package.

The Heroic Tail in San Diego, CA
We focus on rescuing dogs that are considered unadoptable due to behavioral issues. To support our mission, we have partnered with two training facilities. Our commitment to these dogs stems from the fact that they are often the first to be euthanized. Many dogs exhibit fear in shelter environments, which can lead to their placement on the euthanasia list. With the help of dedicated trainers, we work to transform these dogs into adoptable companions, and some even qualify to become emotional support animals through their training. While it is relatively easy to find homes for puppies or dogs with manageable behaviors, we aim to provide assistance to those who face challenges due to the costs of training and their behavioral difficulties.
