Azure’s Safe Haven

We adopted our baby boy from Azure’s Safe Haven almost exactly a year ago. The adoption process was simple or hassle-​free and we got our beautiful little Schnauzer in less than 2 weeks after we found him on
. A few days after our initial email, we got a call, and we corresponded via phone and email until our baby’s flight to come home to us. (We live in SoCal.)
About my Juanito (Fin in the Petfinder ad): He was as adorable and beautiful in the photos as he is in reality. When we first saw him in the airport, my husband told me that our new baby is «perfect». He is! Of course, he had to get used to a new home, habits, and potty training but we couldn’t be happier with our decision to adopt.
I do not agree with the review saying they are a «fraud». As an out of state adopter, I guess I can see why she would presume that. There’s no direct line of sight to the rescue group. The team of volunteers aren’t always able to take your calls since they are very busy with the animals in their care. (They’re volunteers, people!) This same reviewer also mentioned something about pet food. Azure’s Safe Haven recommended a brand and I have not switched ever since. After having used the brand (pet food, supplements, etc.) on my pet and another dog I rescued afterwards, I couldn’t. For me, they are just healthier, more active, and have the best coats. Their adoption fee is also very reasonable (covered neuter, shots, etc.) It’s even lower than the adoption fee we paid to adopt our other rescue dog.
Anyway, once we are ready to adopt again, we will not hesitate to get in touch with Azure’s Safe Haven. In my opinion, they are all about finding the best adoptive homes for their rescues in the shortest possible time.
To the team, thank you for the work that you do and for letting us adopt our beautiful baby boy.

I live in Seattle, WA and actually adopted Casey’s brother! (See review below)
First off let me say I was a little nervous it was «too good to be true». Could I really be getting such a perfect, purebred Pomeranian dog from them???
As someone who has had poor experiences in the past, I definitely did my homework to check that it was legitimate, including checking with BBB for complaints (there are none), and looked up their business license online here:
So here are some expectations upfront if adopting:
Their volunteers are talented and take amazing professional photos. No, they are not stock images! These are the dogs they have for adoption. They can even send you photos if you request them from their foster homes.
To remain anonymous, when a volunteer calls their number may appear as blocked to protect identity. (understandable)
Payment is sent by cashiers check with tracking (to keep transaction processing costs low)
Volunteer also asked for my credit card info to setup a dog food account on
. You don’t have to, it’s just to make things easier for setting up an account on
and get the food in time and yes, I received the $ 300 worth of food and supplies I paid for!
My Jimmy Chew is perfect and exactly as they described. He arrived at the airport with all the tracking information they sent me. The joy he brings me is priceless!!!
The volunteers are amazing, knowledgeable and they are a reputable organization on

I ran across Azure’s Safe Haven on
while looking for a ragdoll rescue. We found an absolutely amazing cat listed by them and because we had never adopted long distance before, I had a lot of questions.
It took a day or so to get into the queue with one of their volunteers but we connected by phone, which was nice and not something that you get from every rescue. I was quite impressed with how much she knew about Harrison and she was able to answer all of my questions. We went forward with the adoption and I opted to pick him up in Salt Lake City rather than having him shipped. They were kind enough to send someone to the airport to meet me, at no charge. This saved me the expense of renting a car or even having to stay overnight. I had contact with three people in the organization and all were very helpful and clearly care about the animals.
The adoption process was pretty much the same as others. They asked me about my living situation, kids, pets, past pet history, etc. There is an adoption agreement which is quite reasonable. They were careful without being militant, which I appreciated.
Harrison was in perfect health, clean, well fed, and well groomed. In no way traumatized by his time in rescue. He is going to be one of the all-​time great cats!
The adoption fee was pretty much what I’ve seen elsewhere, maybe a little on the high side… but we got an 11-​month old purebred ragdoll, and a magnificent one at that! Considering the value and scarcity of the cat, it was a bargain to be sure.
Bottom line, the whole process went smoothly, we have a fabulous new member of our family, and I wouldn’t hesitate to use Azure again.

I live in Connecticut and was very nervous about adopting at such a long distance. But Azure safe haven was nothing less than honorable and pleasant.
They made the adoption a complete success. Their photos of Casey were beautiful and when we saw Casey for the first time at the airport, she was just as beautiful as the pictures that were posted on their site.
She is everything they said and more. We could not be happier. I would recommend azure safe haven to anyone looking to adopt a pet.
Thank you to all at Azure Safe Haven!

I recently adopted a purebred Ragdoll kitten, 12 weeks old, from this rescue. His previous owner had to surrender him for health issues, and had paid a pretty penny for him, so the adoption fee was high but covered shots and neuter. Considering the fact that he is purebred – it was a bargain!
He is very healthy, energetic, and the sweetest cat I have ever owned. My family has had many, but he is the first I have ever had living on my own – he is truly a doll. Sleeps on my bed all night, is very bonded to me but loves and will play with anyone.
This is an amazing rescue! I decided to contact them before any others, after seeing the quality photos on their site. They responded quickly to my late-​night email, and I was contacted by phone the next morning (Saturday), where the photographer was kind enough to tell me all about the available cats and their personalities. I actually was able to meet them about an hour after that and adopted him later that day! The clinic neutered him same-​day – on a Saturday – and microchipped him, sent me off with all the documentation. I appreciated how streamlined the process was and I am totally in love with Draco Meowfoy!

I got my best friend from here! enough said.
i got connected to them through
(great site for rescues) and found the perfect mini schnauzer. The staff did their due diligence by interviewing me a few times to find out more about my living situation, personal habits, and past history with animals. I also had to sign a contract with them prior to adopting promising not to use my little angel for breeding purposes blah blah. Well, of course not.
I ended up paying a little over $ 500 for adoption and shipping fees. BEST $ 500 I have ever spent in my life. My pup arrived on time and as promised with paperwork vouching for her first set of shots. My only complaint is that she arrived with a very bad ear infection that was easy to detect, even by untrained eyes like mine. I am sure the professionals working at the shelter must have noticed her scratching her ears repeatedly. Seriously in love with her and very thankful to Azure’s Safe Haven for giving me my BFF!
