All ALPHA dogs are spayed or neutered, have a rabies shot and 5 in 1 shot, and are microchipped. The microchip number is registered at no additional cost. Adoption fee is $95. A full refund is given if the dog is returned, for any reason, within two weeks. Any dog adopted from ALPHA can be returned any time during his or her lifetime.
ALPHA dogs are not adopted into homes where children are under six years of age. A home inspection, primarily to check security of the adopter's yard, is required. Dogs can be seen at the sanctuary Monday through Saturday, 10AM to 4PM. Dogs cannot be seen during rain or when the grounds are excessively wet. When the temperature is predicted to be over 95 degrees, dogs can be seen only between 10AM and 12 Noon. Please call 661-391-8212 for more information.

Sunday says: "I had a really nice home in Shafter but then my human died. I ended up at the Animal Shelter in Shafter where the nice people here kept me as long as they could, trying to find me a good home. Then they helped me get to Alpha Canine Sanctuary where I can stay until I get a new home. I have so much love to give and I really am looking forward to my new home. Will you love me back?"
