Cruzan Satos Rescue is 100% volunteered based. We pay for all the rescues vetting, spay/neuter, flights, heath certificates and supplies. Donations are always appreciated.

Our available puppies and dogs can be found in the Adopt section of our website or by clicking the Adoptable Animals button. If you find a pet you're interested in, please complete an adoption application and include the puppy's or dog's name. We typically respond to applications within 2-3 days.
Our adoption process begins with an application. Once approved, we schedule a FaceTime home visit to help ensure the best match for both the adopter and the pet. Depending on the situation, adopters may meet their new puppy through one of our stateside foster homes, or we may arrange for the puppy to travel directly to the adopter, where they will be greeted by one of our amazing volunteer flight escorts.
Before leaving the island, all of our rescue dogs and puppies are spayed/neutered (age appropriate), microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. As a nonprofit, donation-based rescue, adoption fees help cover each dog's veterinary care, daily needs, and transportation expenses. We also ask adopters to return their puppy's travel bag within 7 days via USPS so it can be reused to help another rescue pup make the journey to their forever home.
We receive many adoption inquiries and are committed to making the process as smooth and transparent as possible. Our goal is to carefully match each dog with the family and lifestyle that best fits their needs. Many of our rescues have overcome difficult beginnings, so we kindly ask that only serious applicants submit an application.
Our rescue is powered entirely by volunteers who dedicate countless hours to saving lives and helping these dogs find loving homes. We care deeply about every animal we rescue and value the relationships we build with our adopters. Nothing makes us happier than receiving updates and photos as our puppies and dogs settle into their new lives.
Please note: Some adopters may need to travel a short distance to meet or pick up their new puppy or dog, depending on transportation arrangements and foster locations.
