info@ceradogs.orgThank you so much for considering a rescue dog from CERA!
Please ONLY SUBMIT AN APPLICATION if you are applying to adopt for an AVAILABLE DOG from us.
We are unable to assist those looking for specific type or breed of dogs and those residing outside of Lower Mainland Vancouver or Victoria. Please do not spend the time filling out a complete application as your application will not be processed. Please expand your search on Petfinder or Adopt-a-Pet to find a suitable match. Apologies for your inconveniences.
Due to the pandemic, direct flights from Taipei to Vancouver are scarce, therefore if an overseas adoption were approved, the adopter(s) may take longer to receive the dog (maybe a few months of waiting). Please only apply if you are willing to wait to receive the dog so no time and efforts are wasted on both ends. Thank you for your understanding!
Our volunteers have invested a great deal of care and training to prepare each rescue dog for adoption, however each dog will require continued work in his/her new home with a family understanding of his/her individual needs. Our adoption process is lengthy to ensure that each dog is matched with the right home, and that each family receives the most suitable dog the first time around.
If your family has kid(s) under the age of 11, please check with us first by email if the dog you are interested in has experience living with young children. We do not adopt dogs (Formosans are particularly skittish with strangers and not eager to please) who are not compatible with kids to families with young children.
CERA pre-screens all dogs and will not knowingly provide a dog that is dangerous or unsuitable for adoption. Please note CERA does NOT have a shelter facility in Vancouver should you want to return your adopted dog for any reason. Returns are stressful not only to people but more importantly heartbroken for the dog involved, please consider seriously before applying as you are making a LIFETIME COMMITMENT to the dog.
