All adoptive homes must complete an adoption application prior to adopting a Heart Bandit American Eskimo Dog. Each application is screened. Based on this information, we will attempt to match you with the appropriate Eskie in your area.

At the time of the adoption an adoption fee will be charged and you must sign the Heart Bandits adoption agreement. The adoption fee varies with the location of the chapter housing the Eskie and the age of the Eskie, ($125-$200). The fee is based on the average cost of veterinary services in that area.

All dogs adopted from Heart Bandits, are in good health unless adopted as a "special needs" Eskie, are Spayed/Neutered unless the Eskie is under six months old (required by contract when of age) unless there is a significant health risk (breeding not allowed by contract) are current on vaccinations rabies DHLPP (may also include bortadella) and, be Heartworm negative and on preventative.

Though you may think our adoption procedures are a bit stringent, please remember that many of these are dogs have already been separated from a home, and not always a loving one. Some have been through the frightening experience of being in a shelter. We try very hard to make the adoptions successful, and make the best possible decisions for the dogs.

Our adoption process helps to assure us that you are ready for the commitment and responsibility of adopting a dog into your family. Our top priority is the right Eskie into the right home. Adoptions are not completed unless everyone is happy...you, the Chapter Director involved, and the Eskie.
