So You Want To Adopt Your New Best Friend

Caring Hearts And Paws Rescue will consider adoptive families in the Buffalo area and surrounding areas. This is simply due to logistics and distance of travel for our volunteers. Our goal is to make the best rescue match taking into consideration the dog's background and your family's needs. Every dog is different: personality, temperament, energy, comfort with kids and other animals, medical needs and more. We take all these factors into consideration when making a furever-home match. We are very careful about the placements we make. We do our best to match the right dog with the right adoptive home because we want this to be the pet's permanent home.

If you are willing to wait for the right animal to be matched to you,
you are an ideal candidate for Caring Hearts And Paws Rescue. As our success rate proves, these precious dogs are well worth the wait.
