Adult Dogs For Placement 

All adult dogs have adoption fees associated with them; the cost of which helps to cover the many expenses involved in transporting and caring for these dogs. The adoption fee varies and depends on the age, health and training of the dogs.

For many families, an adult dog can be a pleasure since they can skip the "puppy" stage, along with housebreaking and chewing. For a busy family with children an adult dog can really be the ticket.  Please recognize that we are extremely experienced professional dog trainers and that any dogs that have lived in our home are perfectly housebroken, accustomed to living indoors but also comfortable in a fenced yard for part of the day, good on and off leash and in most cases swim and retrieve readily!

Some of these dogs offered for placement have been raised in our home and are not going to be used in our breeding program, or have been retired from our breeding program and are now available to move into a home of their "own".  In fairness to the dogs and to keep our numbers reasonable so that we can give each dog the training and attention it deserves, those individuals are placed as the awesome pets that they are.

Other adult dogs have come from other homes and we do our best to evaluate their health and temperament and training before placement. The rare dog that is truly a "rescue" (neglected or mishandled) is not placed until either completely rehabilitated or, in the case of someone who wants to try such a dog, with full disclosure.  

All dogs come with a liberal trial period and, if at any time the new owner cannot or does not want to keep the dog, they must be returned to us. As with all of our dogs, these dogs are placed on written contracts.

Unless otherwise noted, all dogs for placement are purebred flat coated retrievers.

We do not have any adult dogs available at this time.


Contact Jackie Capes of FCRSA rescue for information on any available adult dogs she may know of.
