ADOPTION DONATIONS: Please keep in mind that all donations help IPPRA with the vetting and foster care for ALL our rescues. Adoption donations range between $100.00 - $450.00. CHOOSING HOMES: All adoption applications will be thoroughly reviewed; will need three personal references and a reference from your vet. All of your present pets must be up to date on shots, on heartworm prevention and altered. Homes with Toy experience and fenced in yards are given first preference. CHILDREN: Due to their size, personality and legal liabilities, we are very cautious when adopting to a home with children. We do not put our kids in homes with children under 8 years old. Unless you have a strong background with the breed, each application will be reviewed on case by case basis. TRANSPORTS: IPPRA DOES NOT SHIP ITS DOGS. Most of our fosters are located in Indiana or within 60 miles of each sister state border. We try when we can to assist with transporting rescues to their new families but expect the families to help. We do adopt out-of-state, however, the primary responsibility of the transport is the adopters. REMEMBER: Rescued animals are by no means perfect or show quality. They are usually from Puppy Mills, bad breeding, unwanted, abandoned, sick or old. Almost never will we get in a small young female. Rarely do we have a lot of background on our rescues. ALL of our rescues will be altered prior to adoptions with no exceptions. If you think a rescue is for you, meet our criteria and have a good loving home to offer, please email us at ippra@ippra.us for an adoption application today.
