"Amazing place to adopt from. They are so kind and work hard to place the dogs with their perfect forever home. Their support doesn't stop with the adoption. They continue to follow up and offer help with any issues that arise once you get your new family member home. If you are looking for a dog for your family, I highly recommend reaching out to Big Paws!!!!"

We follow up with adopters to ensure things are going smoothly with their new family member. Not only do we want dogs adopted, we want them to stay in their furever homes! See if you notice these milestones of the 3-3-3 rule with your pup.
