The Placement Process

Bella and the Topliff FamilyIt is our hope that you will keep your pet as we consider pet ownership a lifelong commitment.  However, we understand that there are circumstances that arise which make it necessary to remove your pet from your home.  Currently the Columbia-Willamette Beagle Club, Inc. is considered a “referral only” program. That means that we do not physically take possession of your dog until we have searched for an approved permanent home for it.  Many times there are wonderful applicants waiting for a Beagle to become available so the wait would be minimal. However, please bear in mind that this process can take some time. All placements will follow this process:

  1. Print the Placement Forms. If you are unable to print the forms, please call our rescue voice-mail at 503-715-0965 and leave your name and address.  We will mail a packet to you. Required forms:
     
  2. After completing & signing the forms, please mail to:

    Columbia-Willamette Beagle Club, Inc.
    PO Box 236
    Estacada, Oregon 97023

    3. Note: This is a MAILING ADDRESS ONLY.  Do NOT bring dogs to this address!

    PLEASE INCLUDE A RECENT PHOTO OF YOUR DOG SO WE CAN ADD IT TO OUR WEB SITE! This will speed up the adoption process.

    IMPORTANT: You MUST submit proof of vaccinations and Statement of Health along with the Adoption Intake form in order for CWBC Beagle Rescue to assist in placing your Beagle!
     

  3. After reviewing your completed forms, a member of our Beagle Rescue team will call for a telephone interview and to arrange a visit to your home to meet you and your dog. If you do not have a recent photo, we will take a photo to aid in placement.
     
  4. Our Beagle Rescue team will immediately begin a search to find your dog a new home.  When we believe we have found a good match for your dog, we will contact you to arrange for the potential adoptive family to meet your dog.
     
  5. When a suitable match is found… your dog will be place in its new loving, permanent home!
