Thank you for your interest in adopting or sponsoring one of our precious sanctuary residents! Hover over the images below to learn more about our animals (best when viewed on a desktop browser). We periodically update the list of animals, so please check back with us often!

Some of our sanctuary dogs are available for adoption. There is a $100 adoption fee per animal, and covers the cost of spaying/neutering, vaccinations, and flea/tick prevention. Some dogs fall into our “permanent resident” category; these dogs are not really adoptable, but would love to have a sponsor instead!

Adoption Process

If you are interested in adopting a dog from SARA, please follow these steps:

1) Please read and complete our Adoption Application form below.

SARA Dog Adoption Application Form (.doc file)

You can choose to print out and mail the completed form, or you can choose to email a scanned copy or picture of the completed form.

Postal Address:
SARA Sanctuary
ATTN: Adoptions
PO Box 813
Seguin, Texas 78156-0813

Email Address: adoptions@sarasanctuary.org

2) If your application is approved, the next step is make an appointment in order to meet the adoption staff and any animals you are interested in adopting. An appointment must be made in advance; sorry, we cannot accommodate walk-in adoptions. That’s because at SARA, one of our highest priorities is the health and well-being of the animals in our care. The shelter is the only safe place and home they know. When strangers, even well-meaning ones looking to adopt, just show up and walk around, it stresses our animals and is disruptive to our staff. We need time to prepare for your visit, where we will introduce you to as many animals as you’d like to meet in order to make the best match and help you find the perfect new family member.

Please contact adoptions@sarasanctuary.org or call (830)401-0280 in order to schedule your appointment.

Adoption Events

We also hold pet adoption events as much as possible for anyone interested in our animals. It is a great chance for you to meet multiple animals before deciding who is a good fit for you. If you are coming to an adoption event to see a specific animal, then please contact us 1-2 days before the event to confirm if the animal will be there that day. (A completed adoption application form is not required in order attend an adoption event; however it is required if you choose to apply for adoption.)
