Homeward Bound was fabulous! Responded right away and made the adoption process so easy. We couldn't be happier with our girly πŸ₯°

Great rescue!!! We adopted a puppy from them. We originally applied for a different dog. The foster was honest and up front and we ended up with another dog that was perfect. The foster was amazing and she truly loved the puppy. I highly recommend them!

We welcomed Freddie an older Parsons Terrier into our home. The representative from Homeward Bound was very helpful and was interested in seeing that he was a good match for his new family. As is true with many older dogs Freddie has his frailties but HB was up front describing his needs and they clearly had his best interests as their number one priority. I would recommend considering this rescue group to folks seeking a forever friend.

Awesome organization. The volunteers and foster homes are the best. They all deserve medals. Benji isn’t the first adoption from homeward bound. Will not be the last. Thank you Homeward bound for allowing us to adopt.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Questions & Answers

No puppies there! That's how they get you to apply and then a lady Tamara will tell you your not eligible they will let you leave with a older dog though without a application that's a fact very rude person I've adopted a 12wk old puppy elsewhere

Not true. I adopted a 13 week old puppy..the screen applicants to make sure the dog is the best home possible and is the right fit. If you didn't qualify to adopt, maybe you should ask why instead of trashing a really great rescue

Why is it so difficult to get a dog if one has never had a dog or does not have a fenced backyard? There must be some dogs available for people like this !

I am looking for a small adult dog around 10 lbs. I can not pay the fee places charge. I am a senior and reside in a small adult community. Does anyone have any ideas? Ty.

I absolutely understand people living with limited resources. Many rescue groups will cover food and medical expenses for fosters, but owning and caring for a dog is an ongoing expense, roughly$1000 a year. Consider fostering, you can save a life and not break the bank

Is Heidi K available?

If you are rerferring to surrendering a dog to our organization, all of our dogs are in foster care and most of our fosters have their own personal dogs. You can find our surrender guidelines through the following link: http://www.homewardbounddogrescue.com/surrender_info.php

I have a total of 6 feral cats (5 of them are kittens) behind my apartment building. Me and my bf have been feeding them and we want to capture them and keep a few and give others away to good homes. What would be some good tips to go about this?

I'd like to adopt a dog from Homeward Bound, but the reviews stink. Baffled how they denied so many people to adopt a dog for "unreasonable circumstances" Is it worth applying at Homeward Bound?

Kim S | Sep 3, 2019

The reality of being a rescue that is responsible is having to tell some people that they don't make a good fit for certain animals. If you have kids and want to adopt a dog that has been surrendered because it played too hard with small kids or was afraid of them they will deny you. Unfortunately all of those people take to the internet to air their grievances. Adopted two puppies from homeward bound (Scooby is my profile pic) and they were nothing but professional and honest throughout the process. The places you should run from are the people that do not have an qualification process and will give dogs to people who are not a good fit.

I just adopted a puppy from there and they were excellent. Their open houses are a little chaotic and they are super careful about who they approve to adopt but it's for the safety of the animals and if you care about animals you shouldn't mind going through a process.
