Adoption Information We rescue animals in need, sometimes they have suffered a very abusive life of neglect and lack of love. They come to us because we are their only voice. It is our responsibility to place them in homes where they will be given the things they deserve: love, attention, understanding, training, patience, medical care, proper nourishment & housing and companionship. Therefore, we screen each applicant very thoroughly and require a home visit. Our adoption fees range from $150 to $400 based on how much rehabilitation the dog needs while waiting to be adopted to a good home. « Read our Adoption Policies.   Operation K9 Rescue Center Phone: 760-497-7764 Address: P.O.
