Why Adopt a Career Change Dog?
Adopting a Career Change dog has several benefits:
Well-Trained Companions: These dogs already passed SDI’s extensive temperament test and continue to receive extensive training, making them loving and well-behaved pets.
A Force Multiplier for Good: We adopt all of our dogs from animal shelters. If we release a dog from training, we never return it to the shelter. Instead we commit to finding them a loving pet home to live their best life. By adopting from SDI, you open up a spot for another rescue dog, and amplify our impact on lives, both canine and human.
How to Adopt from SDI:
Apply: Visit our Career Change Dog Adoption page, for more information and to apply.
Interview: Our trainers will contact you for a virtual interview.
Meet and Greet: We will invite you to SDI to meet the dog. If you already have a dog, we will ask you to bring it along.
1-Week Trial Adoption: Give it a try with the dog in your home for a week.
Official Adoption: Complete adoption contract and pay adoption fee.
Requirements to adopt:
Adopters must be at least 21 years old
Able to visit our Training Center in Dripping Springs to meet the dog
A fenced yard or reasonable exercise area
Commitment to humane care as stated in the adoption contract
The dog must live as an indoor dog and have access to shelter outdoors. The dog may not be kept solely as an outside dog.
Agree the dog will be a family pet and will not be used as a Service Dog
