Adoption Application

PLEASE NOTE: Completion of this application is the first step toward adopting a Boston Terrier. This application does not denote approval for adoption.

Please answer ALL of the questions. PleasePRINT LEGIBLY IN INK or TYPE your application. (DO NOT USE PENCIL). Check for mistakes since the rescue groups will be unable to contact you if your email address is not correct. We will not be able to process your application if we are unable to read or scan it.

Remember to include the name, address and phone number of Veterinarian. The rescue groups will not be able to process your application without this information.

In all probability, you will not receive any communication from your area Coordinator until a suitable Boston has been found for your home. Our Coordinators are extremely busy and do not have the time to contact each applicant until they have found a match.

Finding the right match will take time, so please bear with us as we work on your application.

If you would like to add more information please do so on a separate sheet of paper after answering all of the questions.
