Why do some Breed specific rescue groups have such high adoption fees?
Many times Breed Rescue groups take in Heartworm Positive animals, pay to set broken bones, dentals, and treat illnesses and injuries. They provide treatment the original owner either didn’t choose to do or could not afford to do. An animal’s adoption may reflect its individual medical needs or it may reflect an average cost to the group, with healthy animals subsidizing the care of other animals with more problems.
